My logic is telling me that on a road bike where youve eliminated as many
variables as possible and it comes down to power transfer only then yeah it
will work. On a hardtail off road it might work BUT on a climb surely its
dependent on where you are in the pedal stroke in relation to whats under your
wheels, sometimes the "harder" power transfer might provide more grip but it
might induce slipping too. On a dually though, particularly mid to long
travel, the key to smooth power transfer and not suspension activation is as
smooth a pedal action as possible!? Anything that induces chain growth is a no
no!
Leave it on the road where it belongs!
