It's like Mark said--you can wheelie, but the bike makes you have to try, which is good. I regularly ride my Chev and 59 Clem on the skinniest, twistiest, slightly illegal singletrack with a 180 turn and can still make it. The whole idea is to improve the ride, to discourage endos and wheelies, and add nice stability to any descent, road or trail. The LWB bikes have an edge, but they don't feel the least funky.
