Since you're a big guy, I'd contact Gunnar/Waterford and ask if the tubing is stouter for that size frame. Otherwise, that bike looks like a potential badass.
I've spoken to Richard Schwinn (owner of Waterford/Gunnar) and the frame uses very good materials. His workmanship & finish are excellent also. I'm 220 lbs and the frame is beefy enough for a big guy without being a pig.
