Editing Linkage-Driven Single Pivot

==Overview==
Linkage-Driven Single Pivot [[Linkage]]:
<blockquote>A linkage-driven single pivot design still uses an uninterrupted swingarm, connecting the rear axle directly to the mainframe. However, it incorporates some form of linkage to drive the shock. This allows the designers to manipulate the leverage curve and so control the frame’s progressivity (how much the suspension firms up towards the end of the stroke).

On a Scott Gambler, or any recent Evil, for example, the linkage is driven from the front of the swingarm.

Kona, Cannondale and Commencal — among others — typically use a visually different design, which sees the shock driven from a pivot (or flex-stay) located above the rear axle.<ref>Stott, Seb. “The ultimate guide to mountain bike rear suspension systems.”  02 October 2018, <nowiki>https://www.bikeradar.com/features/the-ultimate-guide-to-mountain-bike-rear-suspension-systems</nowiki>.</ref></blockquote>
