it gives the bike … it gives the bike more stability if your traversing a pith by allowing slight side to side movement of the tire when push on a diagonal.
this bike it’s just … this bike it’s just beautiful and awesome it is awesome awesome awesome ! i love it i had the chance to ride one for 5 minutes but i had to give it back and in the same time when i was riding i was thinking how to steal it i gave it back! ooo that was awesome!
I’d like to offer a … I’d like to offer a counter point: where does traction come from? The rear. Keeping the rear wheel on the ground, both climbing and descending is critically important for maintaining control. In addition, who doesn’t want to save as much energy as possible. Misdirected pedaling forces waste your power compressing the suspension instead of moving the bike forward.
So, yes, front suspension is important, but don’t dismiss the importance of appropriately directly forces in the rear as well.
I’ve tried … I’ve tried Specialized’s FSR and all the VPP bikes, and when you are riding there is vertually no difference between single-pivot and FSR and VPP rear suspantion design. The main thing to be asked here is where does all the steering control come from? the front of the bike. Where does most of the trail impact come from? the front. What brake has the most affect of stopping? the front. The rear suspention is not as important as the industry leads everyone to believe.
Just picked up an … Just picked up an 08 model today for $2k, love the bike. Im still messing with the suspension getting it dialed in exactly how I want it. And going up hill with this thing is a breeze, even without lockout.
