A different type of swingarm
Came across this earlier on youtube and was wondering if anyone ever tried this type of swingarm .I thought it was worth a look just to get some ideas flowing

interesting. That kind of HP, wondering if re-enforced enough. Might be thinker then it looks. Thou with shock mounted the way they are, would think be a lot of pressure being pinched inward. But might work well. Does look cool.

Yea I found some more of his videos and I kept waiting for him to add another rear link but they never did. it looked good and fast in last video but I could not tell what kind of travel it had.

ah TK picking up on it more n more! Nice arrangement overall but for the shock's frame mounting point. needs something to support from the other side of the vertical.

I agree, a dead tube end on a suspension mount is trouble in the making.

could be wrong but even at first glance it looks like it could fold the shocks.

shocks wouldn't fold, but far from ideal position sitting horizontal. dug thru his vids, never posted a ride video. that arrangement would be fine for smooth flat tracking. However, it morphed into something far better. dude has some very good skills, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mbi4Zndt7CM
There's a lot to it that looks like my daughter's build, (HATCHET JOB) I swear i never saw this before LOL. |
