Some of you might heard of Dave Weagle, some might not, but Im sure that most cyclist heard of the DW-Link, well DW stands for Dave Weagle for your info. Anyway its been quite a while since Dave release his world renowned DW Link. So what have Dave been up to?, you might ask. Well he has release a new design called the Split Pivot. It was released around the same time as Trek announced their ABP technology, surprisingly, both design is pretty much familiar and we are not sure if there is some imitating of ideas or its just a mere coincidence, only time will tell.
So what is this Split Pivot all about? Well basically it does mostly the same stuff as Trek's ABP does. But dont think that this system is more superior then the DW Link. According to DaveWeagle, the DW Link is still superior then the Split Pivot, Split Pivot is designed to give the bike designer's more flexibility in designing their bikes, which mean that can make the bike lighter due to the simplicity to Split Pivot
There is no news about which manufacturer will be using SplitPivot for 2008, but rest assured, MTBN_Network will keep you folks updated ASAP. Meanwhile you can head over SplitPivot.com for more info about Dave's latest MTB suspension inovation
