I can go full circle whenever I want but with the right design FS would be my choice. I have a Unicoi ST and yes, it can climb mountains but I can't go full-out blasting down a hill. At the end of the day, it uses more energy because you have to stand so much more and I'd rather have the energy for climbing. I also have a Titus Racer-X. Not only can I go faster downhill, but when you turn her nose uphill you better hang on tight. She's going to the top with or without you. She is every bit the climber and maybe even better than the Unicoi because the traction on the rear wheel is better. I love the Unicoi for all day cruises on tamer trails but the Titus can climb just as well and certainly goes down better.
