DW, would you mind dropping some knowledge on me about why these bikes supposedly handle square-edged hits so well? Based on my plotting of the axle path, it has even less rearward movement than some other DW DH bikes. Instant center location and migration is a bit different than some others, but not radically so. What am I missing?
DW won't be happy with you plotting anything because of inaccuracies. The new DHR has some of the shortest links I've seen on anything, which will make for big variations as a result of even small measuring errors.

I thought I'd save him the trouble of saying that, but I too am interested in hearing about what you asked.

- Axle path vs. sunday; is it more or less rearward in comparison?
- If it is supposedly better on square edges, what are the exact reasons for this... more progression and thus doesn't need to be as firm in midstroke? extra 0.3" of travel?
