Not so sure about 2WD. It was a rarity then, but they're still playing with the concept in modern times. (Teryo, Christini, Jeep Rubicon)
Still, IMO it's a dead end as it'll never catch on.

I'd like to enter my 1990 Ibis Mountain Trials.
It's dead end is the 24" rear wheel, some manufacturers used this between 1987 and 1992. After this period, there was a longer break until the 2000s when some Enduro's used a smaller rear wheel. Today, this design seems obsolete (Am I right?).

Liking that bike. Didn't Cannondale do the 24/26 thing in their early days?
Biopace type rings are back especially on the road. Brad Wiggins seems to be a fan.

Plenty of 29ers are fully rigid as well.

Disqualified as it's an early variant of what is today known as 69er.
