• Yeah, because of the linkage it'll move in more of a straight line, albeit rearward, rather than say a single pivot such will arc around the pivot. So essentially the travel point to point is roughly the same just the path on the Pace is more direct.

    Man, I need to get back to sarcastic answers.

    That's interesting. The shock is compressed from both ends, apparently, something I don't understand the impact of but those who do seem to find it important.

  • What did Guy Kesteven say about it? I'm sure he was positive?

    There's a lot to be achieved with mountain bike suspension

    1. Should pedal efficiently
    2. Should be supple
    3. Should move when climbing
    4. Should reduce slowing you down

    And the linkage provides some of these properties and the damper others, presumably Pace's is good because otherwise they'd use a different design.
