Yeah, a heavy bike is only heavy by 5 lbs or so. A heavy rider is heavy by, well, a lot more. I'm 130 and I suck downhill, actually, that's what I do when I go downhill, I suck wheels. Don't blame your bike, improve your tactics. Learn to do a full aero tuck. Get your arms narrow and your belly nearly on the top tube. You bike is fine.
