Why the dw-link suspension is the best performing suspension system in the bicycle world:
Simultaneously engineered anti-squat and leverage ratio curves are the mathematical formulas that make dw*link the world’s most efficient and traction-aiding suspension system.
Newton’s 3rd law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. When a vehicle accelerates, its mss is transferred rearward. The worldwide patent-pending dw-link anti-squat curve counteracts this rearward mass transfer under acceleration. This action eliminates pedal bob, increases small bump sensitivity, and increases traction.

dw-link does not rely on pedaling platform type dampers, unlike many other suspension systems. Its lightly progressive-to-linear leverage rate curve is engineered to work in harmony with the 2-stage anti-squat curve. Advanced riders use it to pump terrain in the trail and add momentum. This approach gives the best small bump absorption during acceleration and big hit control of any suspension available today.

The dw-link suspension projects and instant center to a tactical location just behind the front wheel. This ideal instant center location achieves the perfect balance of traction and stability under hard braking that is unmatched by other systems.

Pedal feedback on a bicycle is a combination of chainstay length change and gearing effects. dw-link uses a smooth and constant positive chainstay lengthening effect to offset negative gearing effects. This results in a smooth ride with imperceptible pedal feedback over entire gear range.

As suspension travel
increases, the dw-link axle
path changes to meet the demands of the trail. In the beginning of the travel, its rearward profile gives incredible small bump absorption and traction on the climbs. In the middle of the travel, the dw-link axle path works with the front suspension to provide a balanced feel for amazing cornering confidence and jumping ability. The end of the travel provides an increase in compression damping for bottomless suspension feel and big hit absorption.

Low leverage rates and a short coupled rear suspension layout with short, stiff links and a triangular rear swingarm make for a structurally superior suspension platform. The dw-link aligns suspension forces in the most efficient layouts possible to enable frame designs with industry leading strength-to-weight ratios and stiffness. This structural advantage lets dw-link riders put down power more efficiently and track straight in the bumps where others veer off course.
