How is the tire clearance? I recall not exceptional, but I always wanted one for mostly off-road use. I would settle for one of the 900 - 990 series 26" wheel frames, if I ever found one in my size... which yours is!
There are 700 x 32s with fenders, so good clearance but for only off-road you'd be better off with the mtb series like you said. Be careful with the size, this is a 24" (60cm) but I ride a 19" mtb.
