Thank you for quick shot Brother. My first thought is this.
There must be another shot that is as Crisp as the above?
That ain’t right from the get,as they say.

As I commented At Vital, if that patent gets awareded someone needs to burn the patent office to the ground.
what are you guys bangin' on about?!
The patent would be for having multiple main pivot locations. You could pull the main pivot bolt and move it to a different one.
And it's a Canfield?
Vampire Bikes - Chris Canfield's new brand. However, the suspension layout is a normal horst link, but it has multiple main pivot locations you can use. It sounds akin to trying to patent leverage rate flip chips.
I got downvoted at Vital for stating the obvious. Jeez, some people is dying just to have something new to worship...
Given that vampires are essentially parasites, that's a spot-on name for a brand seeking such patent absurdity.
Eh? Some DH frames back in 2001 had 2 separate main pivot locations. swapped in exactly that way
eg.
Coyote DH3/Muddyfox Descent (same frame)

No to sliding dropouts
I use the SS for trail building and weeds/bushes/tumbleweeds get sucked into derailleurs and kills them. Regular SS just eats all that stuff.

new motion instrument data aquisition system for 499
Cool idea but the rear sensor mount requirements could be problematic. No problem if it works for the bike you have now and you don't plan on changing frames for a long time, but if you have multiple bikes or tend to swap frames fairly often you're painting yourself into a corner.System 2

That said, it's still tempting
yes, was tempting, until i read the part where they exclude coil forks -.-
Now I know what I want to ask for Father's Day. I've used the first version of the system and found it helpful, but it didn't play nice with Santa Cruz frames. System 2 works fine.System 2

Looks it just uses the shrader valve to secure the upper mount. You could probably macgyver something together.
