The 11" optical tube is easily manageable as is the mount and tripod. Compared to a 10", 11", or 12" one piece, fork-mounted SCT design, the SW 11" is vastly more manageable to lift, set up, and transport. A perfect example of why the equatorial mount has the advantage in enabling individual amateur astronomers to comfortably operate larger aperture telescopes. If you have ever lifted a large one-piece fork-mounted SCT a half dozen times, or so, you will appreciate the difference. Save your back, buy a SW 11"!
