Totally agree that this looks most closely like a DW6 linkage arrangement. The referenced Yeti patent lacks a link on the chain stay and Sixfinity is a has a different linkage configuration

Could it be a salsa proto ? -cable ports and frame layup look similar to carbon cassidy/blackthorn - salsa has previously used split pivot so a jump to another DW system wouldn’t be a huge leap

A Canfield patent (which is still pending) is directed towards a frame with “a plurality of lower pivot openings” which is different from the Trek prototype which has a single pivot opening with an adjustable/replaceable insert. Which I’m sure is frustrating. It wouldn’t surprise me if another company had an adjustable/replacable single pivot location patent as well.
