6' 145?? your skinny as a rail!!

Cinder block is a good idea too! I just happened to have weights lying around my garage

When changing out the back tire always put a zip tie on the front brake lever...don't be a bonehead like me and lift a 400lb bike in the air to keep it from hitting the concrete, it hurts...more emotionally than physically...
