That's what I was thinking. Exactly the same except for geometry, axle path, leverage ratio, anti-squat, and just about every other possible variable.
And I know the Jedi had no influence on Keith's design. Although they do happen to be built in the same factory.
Mechanically speaking it's exactly the same as a Demo as well. Or even a new-style Karpiel. Two rotating links moving the rear-most member upwards with a shock actuated by the lower one. Clearly a rip-off...just like everything else.
Totally agree, its what makes that bike, id just love to ride 1 that didnt have it to see how it felt, always got that "generic" feel when i ride anything that isnt very rearwards, kinda why i was hoping it was similar. wanted to see if i could hopefully enjoy something that wasnt extremely rearwardsThough I have to say a jedi without its crazy rearwards is not really a jedi. Wouldnt you say?
Mk1 was actually more rearward than Mk2. He backed it off a bit. I thought that was a good thing. Guess I don't hit many of these "square edges" that everyone gets so excited about.Legend is pretty rearwards compared to other non idler bikes. For sure more than a demo
Talk to Keith about suspension. Im sure he will be happy to explain everything to you. He is a great guy.
But you're right, still pretty rearward in the first part of the travel.
Yeah I know and I agree thats a good thing. I was also thinking the CS could be slightly shorter given how rearward it is but that is true for all around riding. For pure dh it is perfect.
Looks like Mike Montgomery pinched your green Dorado stickers...
I know. Dont worry I have options to get the red made green here at work. So I may give it a try! Frame by itself....Looks like Mike Montgomery pinched your green Dorado stickers...
