Heck, all the Pull Shock Yeti and Schwinn and GT DH bikes still ride like champs also! Pull shocks are awsome!

I think he was talking to me. What does this matter? This isn't a gearbox type design like the Zerode or Lahar. I have over 2 dozen companies that have used the high pivot frame in my fav list. Lahar to my information is the ONLY other company to use a geared hub in their frame design. Inform me if I'm not correct. And being you saw my page NoSkidMarks you would have seen my POD. Sunn, Canfield and a slew of other top makers, and even more underground makers have done this same design of high pivot (many like the Lahar, but many different linkage wise). I was solely talking about the geared hub ordeal. Basically with Lahar never going to be around again as Aaron has vanished for reasons I won't say, Zerode took off with the idea (and what a great one it is) and hopefully will truly do something with it. I'm a major Zerode fan in every way, because they took something so wonderful, improved upon the design by hiding the linkage, and are hopefully going to stick around. Either way. Zerode and Lahar don't compare to anything I know about to date bar none. None of the idler pulley arm high pivot frames get close, minus the Canfield... which in it's self is a sheer beast. In the end it's about progression, and Rearward suspension has been and is the pinnacle of suspension design to date. Everyone fears designing bikes with it because of chain growth etc, but, some companies are finding ways around it (mostly with idler pulleys high up) but, even better with geared hubs in the frame. Just wait until we see micro gear boxes and no more geared hubs. I'll put my money on Zerode pioneering that tech.

Run a bigger front gear. Issue solved. =] "• Each model of frame is equipped with its own adjustable shock absorbers, totally produced from billet in 7075, totally designed and built by Ancillotti,(The sole producer on the market that produces not only the frame but also its personal shock absorber) purposely designed, built and sized for the particular type of frame and of course in perfect harmony with the PULL SHOCK system " Sole producer? Definitely not. I think this company needs to do a bit of research as Risse has been doing this since the very early 2k's with their Lassen DH bike. On top of that, Risse also makes their own forks. So basically they are still 1 upping Ancillotti in the game of making all their own stuff suspension wise (sure Risse won't compare performance wise... but that's not the ordeal with this claim of Ancillotti) Maybe someone should message Ancillotti and tell them to change their description of their frame. Also, Foes is pretty much 1:1 with curnett shocks, thus making them not the sole producer. I don't think too highly of a company saying they are the only one to do something... when other companies have been doing it for years longer, and still do it today.
