If you "just know this stuff" why did you even ask if its a "floating shock setup"? With your knowledge, I think you'd be able to decipher it by the picture. Just because everyone doesn't break it down to a science as far as how the bike works, doesn't mean they don't love to ride their bike. How is that fair to even say? Everything you post is completely narcissistic. The people who truly love to ride, will ride whatever. It's called passion.
