I heard of one bloke who successfully mounted over 100lb on a G11. I've used one with C11, C14, 132mm f7 refractor, SBS combinations. Did it all with ease.

The ovision worm = losmandy one piece worm block and is supposed to eliminate a periodic error in the standard worm. The beauty of the mount is that it is continually upgradable and the build is exquisite, all machined.

The next step up in my opinion is the MX at about twice the price. The G11 is excellent all round but has a learning curve to climb to use successfully. Its portable for anyone with average strength; better with folding tripod which sets up with stability like a slab of concrete. A definite good choice for you.
