    I'm not trying to be a jerk but what you said makes no sense at all. That linkage is VERY similar to the new Turners and even Ellsworths without the Horst link. You're thinking more along the lines of the Giant NRS that had the Horst link really low so the suspension stiffened under pedal load.

    No worries, i believe the leverage ratio is not very good. I rode one with 60 psi in the shock and couldn't cycle the entire stroke... maybe a bad shock
