I think Haro have nailed it.
| Quote: | “Haro’s Virtual Link is a new-school suspension design. The linkage utilizes acceleration at the rear tire’s contact patch to counter downward thrusts at the crankset to prevent suspension bob. The chassis looks conventional in profile, but this is an illusion. The bottom bracket is fixed to the swingarm, which eliminates chain tension from the suspension equation. The lower link actually pivots around the bottom bracket shell and the upper link is housed inside a tunnel in the frame where the shock passes through the seat tube. This novel design is engineered to allow the suspension to operate freely in the second half of its travel while providing a firm pedaling platform in the initial stage of compression.”

I think it could be the one bike to rule them all.
