Would I be correct in assuming that the bikes showing an increase in chain tension under compression would be those with a more rearward axle path? eg. Commencal Meta has a more rearward axle path/chain growth than the Ellsworth?

I find it really interesting to watch the rear derailleur and crankarm movement as they cycle the suspension. It is definitely telling about the suspension design.

It's interesting for sure. I have one of those high movement bikes and I don't notice it at all. I remember earlier single pivot bike or even VPPs from as late as 2007 and feeling it a lot. My current single pivot doesn't feel like that at all.

There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.

Shouldn't there actually be one vid for each wheel size in each of the 3, or 4 travel categories?
