You mean to tell me Silverback have moved away from the one and only best way to mount a rear shock?!?!

 

 

SHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! You may upset a "pro racer"

 

pro racers don't need water bottles... they not out there long enough to need a bottle... looking at that Silverback it could suit a pro racer perfectly since I don't see where a bottle would fit on the frame...

 

Then again they might clamp a seatmount bottle holder to the dropper post...pro racers don't use camelbacks do they?

They look seriously vanilla

 

You really think so? Admittedly, they're not the most visually exciting bikes, but they've got some pretty trick looking shaped tubes and beautiful paintjobs.

The top tube shaping is pretty rad. It's just that rear triangle positioning and rocker seem like an afterthought. I've never been a fan of the look of the dual sus Cubes.

 

I'm a big fan of bikes with a sense of flow on the frames:
