@350# you are past the max on cane creek Thudbusters ... but you might go with a sprung Brooks

Again, But .. don't expect it to be perfect right away, you need to get used to each other


Otherwise maybe a 29er + bike with wide low PSI set of comfortable tires ..


Rinsten is a U shaped spring tempered steel wire .. maybe a local artisan blacksmith can make something heavier capacity.. perhaps incorporate some auto engine valve springs in it..

Spring tempering is a heat treatment procedure..

You already have a reasonably comfortable fitting bike , as it is, now?
