I am heavy/overweight, I don't deny it and I fully appreciate the answer is to ride more and faster to get fitter/lose some of the weight, it's just more pleasureable doing it with the benefit/advantage of a lighter bike.
Apart from the forks, seatpost, brakes, levers, stem and bars everything on the langster is stock, okay looking at that maybe it's not such a stock Langster, but it's still (relative to my Pedal Force and it's got gears as well) heavy!
