Ok I have been away from biking for many years. I was a mountain bike fan for many years.
I have my heart set on a trek soho dlx

love the chain drive and whole set up. I hate the wheels I know I would only end up jumping over a curb and my 230 pounds would trash those wheels and blow out tires driving through pot holes.
What alternatives can you find with a nice wheel/tire setup to handle a few curb launches and pot holes.

but after testing the soho it doesn't look much better than what walmart sells.
