Heh, I bought my Nomad in a crucial moment, just after I got a new job, and just before the wedding I use Nomad for everything from aggro Xc to relax_pace riding on proper DH tracks. I felt only once that the bike is not big enough: on Filip Polcs trackin Slovakia, on a extreme steep/ rockgarden?1,5m drop off combo. I did it but the bike squeeled like a pig. There was a guy following me on Lapierre 71, which is I guess a equivalent of Remedy, he did it too with similar result, but he did it! As I said, the key to multifunctionality is travel adjustable fork, as it's a lot about Head Angle.
