When I was climbing on unpaved bumpy road, I had to pedal in half-rising posture. Otherwise, my body bumping up & down with my bike made me go much slower. http://www.flickr.com/photos/77318553@N08/10327499973/ I imagine that full suspension bike would have made it easier by letting me pedal while sitting on saddle. That was the only case so far that I wanted suspension on my Hunqapillar. I'd walk anyway when it's technical, since I'm not skilled.
When I rode on snow, cantilever brakes did not stop the bike very well. Disc brakes are better for that, I think.
