Kohl it's actually nothing like a Knolly design. Knollys are Horst Link with an aditional link to tune the shock curve, while this, as far as the design goes, is actually a lot more simmilar to the older Commencal's Contact System. Though in truth, the CS is just another od the single pivot linkage driven designs, just as this one is.

Yeah, when i saw it i immediately thought Knolly. THen when i saw the linkage, i though Commenal. But on the other hand true revolutionary ideas are rare nowadays and even the revolutionary ideas for the cycling industry are often just adaptations of existing tech from other industries. Nothing bad in taking inspiration from other great designs IMO; as long as the inspired products work properly

I think we need a side by side poll or sth, which asks which discipline do people race in.

Isn't a 14 inch BB height more or less normal for all mountain bikes? Okay, some have a lower BB, but only by a few mm (the BB is a few mm under the wheelbase, axle-to-axle), while some are higher still (Nicolai Helius AM). I figure that the BB is on the axle line here, since the rims have a ~13 inch radius, which gets bumped up by the adition of a tyre.

Steve's story of finally clinching the Title is definitely the best story of all the world champs. Seeing the Earthed clip from les Gets makes it even more satisfying.

So is the Monarch Plus' lever placement changeable from left to right and vice versa?

Do they use the same damper assembly on 32 mm forks too? Coz i see no other reason to have another inner tube for the damping cartridge and all that empty space around it...

Don't you just hate it when these awesome skiers with even awesomer shots from Jackson Hole start making just as awesome bike vids. And to top it all of, they mash them up togheter!! The )!*?!=#=!'s!!
Anywho, is it weird that i badly want to go snowboarding midway through the biking season? Seeing this doesn't help. As doesn't visiting Andrew's Vimeo channel. Again.
