I had thought about dual chain bikes when I designed this and truthfully it wouldn't take much to redesign it as such. Problem is that we just haven't had the time to work on it period.

oh never-mind, i thought you meant running two chains as in a dual sided drive-train, not to reduce chain growth.

the rear triangle design is cool. but im not really feeling the frame design. its a little to curvey. good start though.

Details:

9" rear travel
high single pivot with large wheelbase growth for square edge hits
neutral chain pulley at pivot to fight pedal bob
64.5 deg headtube angle

The frame was designed in 2007. We started prototyping in carbon fiber, but it has never been completed.
