Some bikes are better at it than others due to body position, tire width, etc.
Mainly an old Diamondback Outlook and an old Trek 4300, both 26ers. (WTB All Terrain 26x1.95 on one and cheap Goodyear 26x2.125 on the other. I do have a Frankenbike hybrid with old-school 27x1-1/4 .
I really need to learn to bunny hop and steering through techy stuff (mainly because I'm starting to venture onto singletrack when I'm not doing the monotonous daily exercise routine.) I figure skills like that would come in handy occasionally on the street.
