you are missing it. there's an "idea" and then there "execution of the idea". The 90s were full of ideas. the execution was piss. Absolute piss. Not a single product from the 90s would ever be used anymore with any kind of seriousness. (minus a very simple rigid bike from Spooky or somethign)
Linkage driven shocks are one thing man. I mean they are everywhere. Not just BMW. This Evil this is a bike with all the simplicity of a single pivot, but with with perfect rising rate. You see that the shock is compressed from both ends, but at the chamber end, the rate of compression accelerates as the shock in compressed? Look at the motion of the linkages. It's beautiful.
And that head tube design is genius.
a downhill beauty.
