Yeah, not sure I'd be able to perceive a 3 or 4mm difference in cs length. But my point was that multi position cs make the engineers job harder. Makes designing a bike take longer, essentially to do it right they'd need to run every FEA loading scenario for each chip position. Time=money. Also good FEA software is expensive, I'm guessing lots of the smaller companies don't own it, only rent the software licence by the hour.
