“In contrast to a conventional frame structure having a full seat tube, the seat tube does not extend to the bottom bracket but instead the lower end of the seat tube terminates at a height above the bottom bracket,” Specialized said.
Okay, so it has gone off into patent speak there but you get the idea: more up/down movement at the saddle with little or no difference to the transfer of power. “As reflected in the test results, the [Specialized] main frame produced 172% greater vertical deflection and 75% greater horizontal deflection at the seat during the vertical stiffness test compared to the conventional frame,” says Specialized. “By increasing the vertical deflection at a greater rate than the horizontal deflection, ride comfort is increased without substantially increasing the rearward saddle tilt.
