Ctrl + c

similar to, but very diffferent.

 

Front triangle is very similar. But it's a newer age bike, and there's only a limited amount of ways you can shape tubing.

 

As for the rear - the primary pivot point on the Pyga is higher, the top rocker is smaller and the rear pivots above and in front of the rear axle.

 

The Trek's rear pivot is ON the axle, and the top rocker is longer, creating a different leverage ratio.

 

similar to, but vastly different.

Thank you, do you know who did that shock connected to the rear swing arm first?

For want of better terms...

Ugh.... i really don't know that. They're completely different suspension designs even though it's still a 3 pivot linkage, but if you mean the floating shock design.. I dunno

Trek start with it in 2010 i think. They call it full floater

 

Trek if they offer carbon, Pyga oneten when they decide to start producing carbon bikes.

The trek in first post is a carbon.
