I don't "rip" through anything (without brain injury, I might, but I ride fairly conservatively), but from what I've seen, I ride my fendered Hunqapillar the way you ride your Niner -- riding everything the full suspension folks ride. They look at me in stunned amazement that such trail can be ridden without what they have, then they see I'm barefoot on smooth wood platform pedals and they usually go speechless. Pretty amusing. And then I have no issue blowing past them on the smoother dirt and paved roads back to civilization. Grin.
I agree the Bombadil and Hunqapillar pick up where mountain bike evolution (and perhaps 50's utility bikes?) left off. I delight in mine!

Yet I wouldn't even hesitate to rip through these obstacles on the Niner... it virtually eats up this type of terrain... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
