I'm showing my age in that I know exactly who that is! my missus is getting like that with her Casadei's, Louboutins and Blahniks... usually when she sees a box being delivered I get the look as if to say "what is that?" I usually respond with "another pair of shoes? don't you have enough already?"

Check out the Amazon link I had above. It says a max weight of 100kg. They also mention a tyre width up to 225mm, and since we all like wide tyres, this may be the limiting factor here.
