I did it once on my Sam on trails like you described and my take away conclusion was never again. I wasn't worried about the frame breaking or the wheels not being able to handle it, because they can. I think the combination of the low bottom bracket and the Albatross bars made the bike difficult to control on rocky trails. To me the geometry was all wrong. On smoother trails it was fine but once you get into the real technical stuff, not so fun. I have plenty of experience on mountain bikes so my skills are there, it was just the wrong bike for the application. My bars started to slip and rotate downward from all the banging around. Bull Moose bars would have really helped.
