What about cyclocross? That stuck around.
Besides, with the increasing amount of bikers getting smacked by cars, it seems getting off the road and riding a smooth Jeep trail is a good strategy.
You say fad; I say evolution.

Heck with what people say. Go and have some fun. I think I would dislike riding on rough trails (rock going into your shoes and such), only because I have never done it but only ridden on mtb trails so I think its very similar. As a matter of fact, I hate paved bike trails due to too many pedestrians and other cyclist. I deal the traffic, its not too bad and I am used to it. I'm not sure if trails bikes use electronic shifting. If so, you must have it or at least look into it. I love it, PDK on your bike man.
