[QUOTE="semi old guy, post: 24541, member: 16894"] well here we go again and i love it. i made a scale model of the rear end with card board and twine and thumb tacks used for pivot points. the chain tension wants to compress the suspension as you would think by looking at it. there is another force however. a force vector acts on the rear wheel at the point where it contacts the ground. it is directed forward (the direction of acceleration). that force is trying to extend the swing arm as long as the swing arm pivot point is above the axle. i think that this is the greater force and causes the rear end to stiffen under acceleration [/QUOTE]
