It's Giant's new design that's supposed to let you pedal more efficiently because less bob is created.

In theory, of course.

In actuality, who really knows.. It's got a SPV shock on it though, so as long as it absorbs bumps you can tune your own pedalling platform and all will be well.

I believe DW has insinuated that there is nothing special or great about the axle path that this design creates.

i ride a new giant and i've never felt anything so efficient... go try one, just try it... take it up the knarliest hill climb you can think of and see what you think, they do have some minor adjusting to mess with but it's def a nice ride

Holy resurrecting a dead thread, Batman.

I've heard good things about the design since its release. They've gone through a couple different designs since this thread, IIRC - one was scrapped because of infringement on the VPP patent.

I was looking at the 11/27 thinking "what is he talking about?" then I saw the 2004. Crazy.
