Tadpole trikes would be hard for an uber-clyde to get in and out of, due to the very low seating. But if he wanted to look at one, a KMX Kart might work. A delta trike might be better, as trikes go; but the split axle arrangement on the Sun EZ-3 doesn't inspire my confidence.
When in doubt about load limits, contact the mfg. Recumbent mfgs are small and many may be able to offer a special build.
^^^ this is one of the guys I was talking about who can give you MUCH better info on bents than I can, Peter.
