When you add or subtract the weight from your weightbelt to make either tank neutral, the 120's will be lighter to carry than the 119s. In fact, if you include your weight belt, all of the 7.25" Worthington HP cylinders are about the lightest in pounds per cubic foot of all of the tanks made, about .300 to .309 pounds per cuft of rated capacity.
If the 120 is too long, have you looked at the 100?

I bought a single 120 years ago, to carry more gas. I am 5'11", and it is long, but works well. Bought a second 120 and doubled them up. They work, although I am a bit 'foot heavy'. If I were doing it today, I would go 119s, (maybe 130s), and not the 120s. I really like double 119s, and double 130s are OK.
