Would be great to see a simple list of the incremental changes from the last (thru-2020) SJ EVO. Looks like:
* Added size range, now Including S1, S4, S5, and S6
* Reach reduced significantly to line up sizing more closely to rest of line - new S3 now shorter than old S2, new S4 shorter than old S3
* Steeper SA by about 1.5deg
* Longer chainstays on the S5 and S6
* Raised main pivot point (I think) to increase anti-squat and rear axle path
* Change from tapered dropset to adjustable upper cup for +/- 1 deg adjustable HA
* Revised link and yoke (maybe?) to use 55mm stroke shock (up from 52.5mm) and get to 150mm travel
* Looks like a touch less BB drop, maybe related to the longer travel and revised link
* Others?
Appreciate the creativity put Into the PR copy, but It really obscures the substance In this case.
