You might cross-reference this thread over in the
Clydesdales/Athenas sub-forum; cyclists there are generally 200lbs or more. One of them might well have practical experience with these hubs, and be more than willing to share their knowledge with you.
Then, check back in and tell us what you learned. Good luck!
