The leverage curves on bikes like that are generally kind of funky. Regressive in the initial stroke and extremely progressive later on, they look sick though

Thumbs up for the magazine. I miss print.

Kavenz also has standard and leverage+ rockers, though I think there will just be one rocker for the V8 and different lower shock mount points to change leverage.

I would think its just a case of moving the BB forward relative to the pivot points, similar to what the did on the V1 dread? That way the stays and rocker can all be the same across all models. Also means the (actual) lever arm from the axle to the shock is the same across all models, meaning FEA may not be need to be re done on the rear end for each front triangle size. Just my semi-educated guess.

Unfortunately that is not correct. RC, FC, and WB are all horizontal measurements. CSL is the point to point measurement from center of BB to rear axle, and there's no name (or need) for the equivalent version at the front.

I once sent PVD an honest question by email about a technical drawing on his website and he answered : "W hat your asking falls into the 'that's a stupid question' category. Only a terrible person would answer a stupid question." Such a nice guy

It's not a knowledge or concept problem. It's an attitude problem. PVD is TOXIC.

Rulezman, Jan Heine, PVD, Grant Peterson... cycling seems to perversely reward people with big egos, big opinions and questionable applications of scientific principles.
