I don't think I will be thrashing it really at all but I do want a bike set up for slightly rougher trails. I wasn't sure if it would be overkill to set up a country bike frame in this manner. I have a Bleriot and it doesn't seem like it would be a great frame to set up in this manner. I think the Hillborne is more heavy duty than the Bleriot though.
