What Patrick said! I'll also add this: I have both a hunqapillar w/ 2.1 smart sams and a sam hillborne (650B) with soma cazaderos 42mm tires w/ tread. Both are capable of some technical trail riding as long as you head Patrick's advice. However, the big difference I've noticed in riding the sam v. hunqapillar on trails (besides the obvious difference in tire thickness and pressure) is the lower bottom bracket on the Sam which can hit some rocks and roots more easily and cause more pedal strike on turns. I am definitely more careful on the sam than I am the hunq, and i'm already very careful on the hunq.
