Tend to agree with you on that one, had to build with parts from previous bike. Anybody keen on a swop?

Softails don't really use pivots, there gave been many designs over the years.

My favorite is this baby though.

pffft! if that's a Hilux, then what would you call something with 7 or 8" of travel?! hahaha!

 

I'm thinking that's more of an ML63 AMG... can take the little bumps and park on pavements :P hahaha!

 

ps. I have white wheels on my 'Unimog' and Yellow on my 'Hilux' (morewood Izimu DH and Yeti AS-X Freeride)

 

VIVA LA DUAL!! :clap:

Just to understand this, as I too was educated on this today :thumbup: , What do you mean by, "don't really use pivots" ? So a softtail can use pivots therefore making it a dual suspension, Im a bit confused.

If you look at the Wallup, the triangle almost looks like a hardtail till the seat stays meet the shock.

The chain stays and the "plate" at the BB flex when you hit the bumps.

The travel is very limited 1-1.5 " of travel, they "soften" the ride, a full susser is just that, the entire rear of the bike is active.
