So if i understand the maths correctly Zerode is using the ground/reaction force at rear tire contact point to create a "lifting" force at the main pivot.
(moment ground force X distance to main pivot = a reaction in "y" axis equal and opposite to the "y" force acting on the rear contact point)
This lifting force counters the weight transfer created by the rider, looking at the linkage program its seems zerode placed the pivot at mid distance of COG of a standing rider(Which would be perfectly logical)
So you in theory you get 100% anti-squat(throughout all the travel) but with almost no chain growth.
Add a floating brake you got a completly neutral system(i think!?)
Yes i am going to go outside and ride my bike now
