That’s silly. You don’t need AWD on a bike. If the obstacle is too big then get off your bike and walk over it

eh those shaft drivin bikes are junk, good concept but its just a really cheaply built bike to surround it.

Oh and fuck walking over big obstacles, I just take 7" of travel and plow over the shit.
