If I was you'd try a bike - perhaps your current one - with a rigid fork and Schwalbe Big Apple balloon tyres. Or the biggest size of XRs, if you ride off road. Balloon tyres give an excellent suspension effect, protect your rims, and don't bottom out like mechanical suspension.

for Rigid with BIG APPLES. I keep mine at about 50# (rear) and 45# (front) and get a nice cushy ride. I weigh in at 260. I went full rigid and love it. Big guys have enough to worry about. Failed suspension is not on my list of concerns. Besides, they are just so damned cool lookin
