I'd want a full bouncer. I now use a square-wire die press spring now, as I have not only myself on the bike, but also two batteries, shopping and a child on the back. The springs are available in all manner of diameters, lengths and strengths. That's if you're struggling to find full bouncers that have a comfortable rate.

I also use balloon tyres, they're great, not the most aerodynamic things in the world but if your aim is to get fit instead of get the fastest lap times, they'll do it and you need not worry about getting pinch flats.
