I'd really like to get me some Monkey Lite XC bars, but I'm a little worried as I'm about 200# and I ride rigid. I've seen some reviews on mtbr that say they're strong enough for a big guy but I just have a hard time believing that a clydesdale on a rigid with those bars is a good idea. Anyone else here have real life experience as a big dude [on rigid] with these bars.

As a side note, I realize I could go with the DH version of this bar and it'd still be a little lighter than my stock bar, and I'd get the feel of carbon. It would just be nice to be able to get away with the lighter xc bar.
