Is This the New Enduro? Specialized Patent Shows 170mm Bike With UBB Suspension Design
Wow, all that tech so we can adjust the anti-rise? awesome.
A single pivot with rocker can do the same except the adjustment.
Who ever thought "well I'd adjust the anti rise of my bike for this part if I could"? That's the bike you wished for.

Review: How Canyon's KIS Could Change Mountain Biking, and Why It Probably Won't
Your cargo bike has a trail to wheelbase ratio that is probably an order of magnitude less than a MTB, and if it's a bakfied-kind of cargo, no weight on the front wheel. I've made a short offset fork for mine and it helped a lot, I can even ride without hands now, if there is weight in the front.

The main benefit is being able to replacing the spring with a servo on your ebike so you can watch TV while your $20k bike is riding without you.

Video: What's The Big Deal With High-Pivot Mountain Bikes?
Anti squat comes from both the geometry of the swingarm and the chain action.
High pivots bikes have their IC closer to the rider's COG heigh, giving them a higher antisquat before accounting to chainline.
So chainline effects can be lower while retaining high antisquat values. They even can have the opposite effect of needing too much "negative kickback" if the pivot is high enough.
Legs movement aren't part of the antisquat theory. We need to ajust for that by giving bikes a bit more than 100% antisquat.

The 2024 Berria Mako Uses An Internal Shock For XC & DC
No closeup on that rocker link.
Looks like they couldn't use Bolt's patent and went the "mud inside your frame" route.
