in my quest for the perfect trail bike i've recently noticed that the new swingarm on the meta looks a lot like the swingarm on my cannondale prophet in terms of shape and placement (eh duh - i know, just never thought of it before). thus i want to see what kind of difference the link makes in terms of the suspension rates. does anybody have these datas or know where i can obtain them? tftuned or push perhaps? i just wanna see what kinda difference the metas link vs the cannondale style swingarm to shock interface makes for. i believe the answer to this riddle lies in the suspension curves of the two bikes (meaning the force required to move the shock in the different parts of the stroke). or, i wanna compare these anyway

any and all help much appreciated
