Looks very similar to the specialized Demo and enduro linkage!

Yup. Except that the shock driving linkage isn't concentric to the chainstay (guessing the bolt is hidden behind the downtube protector) and that the shock is not concentric to the two linkage parts but is driven by the vertical linkage.

But yeah, a very similar concept.

One can assume they don’t care about 30€ springs if they’re selling much more expensive shocks,forks,droppers,axs,zipp eccetera. After all they’re called rock shocks not rock springs

did the slash always have that kink in small sizes or is that the new slash? looks very similar to the current one but haven't seen one with that kink ever.

might be a new altitude, RM enduro boys where on what looks like a new instinct too instead of the slayer, which they said they would race in 2020.

Second pictite of the norco looks like there is a pivot and the brake is connected to the chainstay a-la-Devinci.
BTW I don't know why but I whished for something different from Canyon

The women's remedies all have the kink to allow shorter top tubes and good standover. It's not new, and as said above the paint is Project One

There is an edge visible where the aluminium extension sprouts out indicating a pivot. And the way it looks is that the rear axle is mounted to the chainstay (effectively, so the bottom link), making it a true horst link.

Where's that hat now.
