I'm reading some review for single pivot bikes. One review said that that certain bike design sucks and he would never ride one again because a single pivot in front of BB, means chainstay length growth. He then added ask your local shop and they can tell you like it's left from right.
I've always read about it in the past but never really understood it. I'm assuming that when bike is compressed the chainstay length grows but how does this affect your riding? Can anyone elaborate on this?
Also, speaking of single pivot and multi pivot bikes (i.e. fsr, vpp)... for those who went from single to multi do you really notice the differences of brake jack, better contact with ground, etc...?
