yeah it looks pretty sweet but why do you ride singlespeed? your chain will break everytime if the suspension starts workin'

Scotty did a ride with the DHX AIR pumped up so much it was almost a hardtail, but even with it pumped up very high, the chain still snapped, he's gone to gears since I think.

Nice lie "runner" idk if you know him or not but the bike is designed like the cowan with a special pivot so it doesn't shorten the chains distance. Why else would it be single speed compatible, im shure banshee kept that in mind..

the frame geometry probably allows a constant chain stay length throughout the stroke of the shock, normally you would have the pivot point around the BB shell to allow that but it must work with the pivot slightly above otherwise he wouldnt run it like that

no its not concentric....the cowan ds is around the bb. how does this work?!

flag mathewgehman (March 3, 2008 at 15:28) (Below Threshold) show comment
there is no way that would work because the pivot is above the bottom bracket, the wheel path changes as it goes through its travel, the wheel would be further away like every centimeter of travel...take the shock off any fully (except the cowan ds of course) and measure the distance from the axel to the center of the BB when in the nuetral position, then again when it is compressed, the last measurment will be more gaurenteed.

Yes it is...The pivot is in one piece look for a second at a SXtrail frame...It has a 2 piece pivot...
