Those are kind of cool, but couldn't they get the same suspension effect with the shock just below the TT? Did they explain why they put it above?
there's too many numbers on this frame. I wanna ride bikes, not do math homework.
That's an interesting shock placement. I believe high shock location improves leverage ratios for single pivots, and while it certainly different to put a shock above the top tube, since this is a XC bike, standover is less critical. And I like being able to watch the shock in action.
But there is definitely too many numbers on the frame.

I really like the raw carbon and white color scheme - but yeah all the numbers are silly. It was pretty funny wandering around their booth trying to figure out if I was looking at a different bike with all the fricken numbers everywhere.
Did they do it like that just for the show so people could figure out chainstay length and crap like that just by looking at the frames? Or will they all come like that?
Nope, those #'s are the 2008 graphics.
Frame comes in black w/white graphics, white w/white graphics, silver w/pink
