I'm not a FG off road rider, I primarily ride SS off road in the south of the UK. I'm saying all of these questions are analogous to the questisons many people who ride geared off road that don't ride SS ask.
Isn't it harder up hill?
Don't you spin out on the flat sometimes / downhill?
Why?
Yes is ofcourse the answer to all of the questions but it's part of the riding for the people that ride that type of bike. The limits and challenges which it creates is why people ride that bike.
