Not posting my weight (not because I'm embarrassed, but to keep from getting lots of messages about reading the "Eat Bacon" book), but I'm an Athena, and I ride a Betty Foy. I use a Nitto S83 seatpost, and I ride on 38mm Soma New Express tires. No problems whatsoever, even when I was doing longer rides over rougher terrain.
I know many bike manufacturers post weight limits to keep lawyers happy, but I think anyone who is in the 300-350lb range can safely ride a Betty, Cheviot or Sam. I don't think a Hunqapillar or an Atlantis is necessary, unless you just really want one of those models.
