Let me attempt to pull my foot out of my mouth here...
Out of curiosity, why would DW share a concentric pivot idea with Trek? Seems like a very valuable patent. Am I missing some backstory drama?
Either way, the bike looks dated, and doesn't appear to do much well aside from tech climbs..largely due to higher BB placement. Still looks like a cross between and old spec and a trek.

A 2008 Spec Enduro sleeps with a 2010 Trek Fuel and births this bike, that is not as capable as either of these machines. "Split Pivot" seems like a fancy work-a-round to Sepc's FSR patent, and Trek's full floater/ABP patent. I'd love to see the engineering audit explaining how lowering the drive side chain stay angle creates significant anti-squat characteristics. This bike is way behind the pack.
