Review: RockShox' New Flight Attendant Suspension System
I used to crave something like this to control bob under hard efforts. But i've found that high pivot bikes with high anti-squat (I imagine 160% or more) make for a totally solid platform.

Very nice, I'd try some on my bamboo full suspension if they made an enduro approved version!

Owned from new since April 2020 and paid £2500 but has not seen much use, as it arrived the day before we went into quarantine My strava says around 350km but even a good chunk of that will be sat on chairlifts
The condition is still excellent with just a few very minor marks. Colour is candy green (elite colour option) which on a sunny day glows and looks amazing.
Bike is located in Shrewsbury UK, but it is also possible for me to ship it from the EU if you're willing to wait a few weeks.
£1400
Cheers, Jason

Riding Earthbound's High-Pivot Bamboo Bike
Bamboo has a super smooth and quite tough natural skin, also a human applied clearcoat. Double wrapped ;)

Riding Earthbound's High-Pivot Bamboo Bike
@SuperHighBeam: All of this. I saw a stat somewhere saying that bamboo requires 10x less energy to produce.
People seem to conflate eco-friendliness with "will it rot when I am dead" instead of thinking about inputs in the here and now.
