Just stumbled over these pictures of a new Specialized bike. Quite possibly the enduro. Full on Öhlins, concentric pivot and "open" frame design.
Seems fitting to push it with Graves on it:

Blasphemy, this is the church of anti squat, a concentric pivot bike uncomfortably challenges my world view.

Can somebody more educated in the ways of the squat educate me about how much this will suck?

There is a pivot between the bb and the axle so there will still be chain growth

I can't see the new Enduro without Twat Box and a wurtle burtle cage location.
Looks like a dropper would not be able to work on that frame either, not much insertion depth....

But there is definitely a new Graves-duro for MY17. Speshy is doing a good job of keeping it under wraps so far!

You might want to take a look at the rear mech. Looks a bit short for a => 42 cassette.
Also why are the spokes of the front wheel in front of the rotor? New fork standard inbound? Damn you Derpalized!!!!111!!111000

Emptybeer were taken in by this shitty PS job too. :clapping:
