Mar 22, 2002 2:23 AM | | i like intense,(i've gotta tracer) but dont u think that the part of the swingarm (behind the seattube) is to close to the back tyre?? kinda like the old schwin rocket?? major lacka tyre clearance in mud, which they'll find out if that bike gets ridden @ sea otter if it rains! hey i aint dissin, i like the look of it as well!, tyre clearance looks a prob tho!

Mar 22, 2002 2:35 AM | | I agree with you.
the intense looks much more rigid than the santa cruz.
The blur is non symetric, tire clearance is better but i'm affraid of the rigidity.
Hum, and as for the article, it is spanisch, not italian, sorry.
The guy say it works really well, but he is the spanish importator so can we really believe him ?
Moreover is technical explanations of the way suspension works are just plain crap.
