I'm 6'5" 260. I could put that bike in my pocket.
So yeah, the Triple X would probably work for you. I have a Double X that's a friggin' tank and huge to me.

I really wanted to get this before my GT but it's a little too expensive.

thats a cute bike, does it come with handle bar tasels?
What, are the tassels the seller for you?
No, but it is a 23 lb aluminum framed racing bike that will probably crank at about 35 mph, if not more.
You should try riding a bike...
I wasn't gonna say it.
used to ride an S&M Sabbath bmx bike back in highschool. At 6'1" 160lbs, it just isn't all that fun. Mountain bikes are just easier to ride around on, I don't do much trick riding anymore so no reason for the little bike.
I just like the quick sleek feeling from a small, light bike. Plus I always end up braking those weird gear thingys on those mountain bikes people are always talking about.
My bike
Heres my sweet bike. I traded a go-ped for it (bought the go-ped for 30 bucks) This bike has like $1200 in parts.. its top notch for bmx. Plus its got the coolest seat ever!!!

I can't imagine trying to commute on that bike. I would look like a monkey humping a football. Probably be just as effective too.
No, but I do notice a squeak in my bottom bracket that I never knew existed... I am going to have to get that fixed before it drives me crazy.
The simple switch in tires shaved 20% off my commute time this morning.
this is mine the day i brought it homeAnyone else on this site ride regular bikes?

Ya BMX bikes are the way to go. you can ride in and out of cars fast, hop up curbs, and its much easier to run away from the cops! haha. Gears, i dont need no stinkin gears... i can ride 40 miles in SF with a bmx. You ol folks need to get in shape 
Critical mass

Critical Mess is bunch of losers that go out and piss everyone off by disrupting traffic and damaging property. Real bike riders want nothing to do with it and very outspoken against CM because of the damage it does to the biking community. For those that don't believe me, watch what happens any time one of the CM twerps posts about a ride on the roadbike review forums or mountainbike review forms (by far the most active bike forums out there); in short they get torn and new
. If you want to go hang out with a bunch of anarchistic, unemployed, emo idiots, go for a CM ride. If you want to do something to help improve conditions for bike commuting, join a real organization like the San Francisco Bike Coalition, which is actually doing something to try and improve bike access and safety.
