First Look: Angeles' Spade Prototype Was Designed by a 19-Year-Old
@ethaneggert42: I'm wondering how the bike rides? what were you trying to achieve with this suspension system?

@AgrAde: Something like that. It seems to me like he didn't really look into suspension kinematics. But i gotta admit the frame does look really good. I think paired with a good suspension platform it would be a very sick and cool bike.

@AgrAde: ah ok. I just saw your other post about putting the design into linkage. I did the same as well after I realized the bad AS. the leverage ratio is pretty crazy and the bike is super progressive, around 280% for 70kg rider and 30% sag. At least the AR isn't bad, depending on what you prefer.

@AgrAde: I don't think the high pivot has too much too do with it. but the instant center is very high and in a weird place.

The pedaling on that bike would be horrendous.
