The Pivots are Clevis style, and probably overbuilt, so it's going to be OK, maybe not the stiffest or lightest design in the world, but it's OK.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Tony.Antonio Osunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075236093614144240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650400550712092979.post-18472210725864484482013-09-19T05:05:11.805+02:002013-09-19T05:05:11.805+02:00Consiste en hacer una simulación entre bicicletas ...Consiste en hacer una simulación entre bicicletas Igualdad variando sólo el anti-squat?Fabio Alexandrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11590216669560794135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650400550712092979.post-65654147709360879592013-09-19T03:16:02.292+02:002013-09-19T03:16:02.292+02:00It was my strong impression that the rarity of bik...It was my strong impression that the rarity of bikes with mid-chainstay (or seatstay) pivots was due to misgivings about such a linkage configuration, structurally. In designing a suspension linkage great effort is normally made to a) minimise the number of pivots using non full width pivot axles and b) make sure that any linkage part implementing a pivot using non full width partial axles (e.g. the chainstay pivot of a horst-link) is able to brace that pivot by another full width pivot or structure that is in close proximity (by either keeping the linkage part short and stiff or by linking to another part that can supply similar support).<br /><br />Maybe, I'm wrong and there isn't a structural issue. Until there is further validation of this approach as comparable structurally to DSL with a rigid rear triangle or common horst-link configurations a question mark will remain over it for me.<br /><br />Un saludo<br />ChrisUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17241896695243345163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650400550712092979.post-27543740892344908162013-09-18T21:31:07.836+02:002013-09-18T21:31:07.836+02:00Me encantan los números de este sistema, me da la ...Me encantan los números de este sistema, me da la impresión que ha tomado lo mejor de los dos mundos, aunque quizá, tienes razón, le falle un pico de progresividad al final. Pero, incluso, hay una estupenda preocupación por la rigidez trasera, enlazando el amortiguador directamente. Transcribo este detalle de una página de análisis: http://www.pinkbike.com/news/First-Look-Breezer-Repack-Eurobike-2013.html:<br /><br /> This mid-chainstay pivot location means that the pivot only needs to move 3 degrees as the bike goes through its travel, which could help extend bearing life, since the bearings don't need to move as much as they would in a dual short link design. Frame stiffness was a key factor in the design process, with the end goal being to create a low maintenance, flex free frame. To accomplish this, the rear shock is connected directly to the rear swingarm, and an aluminum brace joins the seat stays to the chainstays for additional solidity.<br /><br />Saludos <br /><br />Corrochanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09313856165265719572noreply@blogger.com
