It is one of safety. A p133 has enough power to take a 100lb person up a very steep grade. A 250lb person will probably just get stick shake.

The bigger problem is going down hill, the p133 will have trouble keeping the rider upright if the weight too much.

As long as it's pretty flat ground I doubt your friend will have any issues. I weigh in at around 225 and use my p133 everywhere but I am a very experienced rider.
