Why am I sharing this, and why might another rider want to read this? I'm a (modestly) credentialed, (modestly) working scientist with no present affiliation to the any part of the bike industry. Teaching quantitative reasoning and technical communication skills is the lion's share of what I do for work. I'm not a 'sci-comm' professional trying to drive attention toward a podcast about bikes or a bike youtuber trying to grab attention by deploying keywords like data or science. I don't have a vested interest in either bike setup being faster than the other. So let this be my attempt...

This is wild! That's a lot of practice on the same trail. Betting you have every rock, bump, and line burned in your memory now. If I'm eyeballing lines of best fit for A and B for the graph you shared, it seems like A starts out slower than B, then they converge to be equivalent by the end of June through the end of the test in November. At the widest point of variance between A and B, it's about 3 seconds (46-ish seconds per lap for A vs. 49 seconds for B, eyeballing lines of best fit). Which...

I’m thinking PVC pipe and caps, springs from the random hardware section and maybe a stack of nuts on a piece of all thread for the weight. Bushings smaller pvc pipe? Edit- springs could be bungee cords too. That would be ideal. Nice and progressive

As a guy who often writes too much for little-to-no reward on the internet, I appreciate the essay you've put together here
That said, arguing that people "aren't doing it right" when it comes to assessing performance is a tough sell. Though I haven't had much time on the product in question, I wasn't impressed. Most of the guys I really trust (no pun intended) also weren't impressed (one was). Yes setup was correct, and yes we were all expecting a different kind of ride. It eats certain bumps really well. Unfortunately, its a bit of a one trick...
