Anti-Squat
Across our line, we have chosen a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve in beginning and mid-section of travel where pedaling commonly occurs a.k.a the pedaling zone. This creates an efficient pedaling platform through your entire pedaling zone, there is an inflection point where the Switch Infinity link moves down, dropping the anti-squat drastically. Riders are typically not pedaling in this zone, so chain forces have less of an effect on the suspension performance. Decoupling of the chain forces allows the suspension to work more efficiently to absorb impacts making the feel of a Yeti distinct.

Downside.
We custom tune the shock on every Yeti to compliment Switch Infinity's unique characteristics. Unlike other "short-travel" trail bikes the SB115's suspension performs best even when set up with sag numbers (30%) akin to much longer travel bikes. We don't leave it to someone else to make every millimeter of the SB115's suspension travel count.
Multi-stage, multi-day, more involved, higher-speed, the
SB115 excels in new-school
trans-XC style racing
and riding.
FORWARD BIAS POSTURE
Gives racers room to stay comfortable over long race days.
AN “APPROPRIATE” FRAME REACH
Keeping racers agile, able to react to race tactics, and tightly taped courses.
A LOW BB
For that “in bike feeling” on the ascent or pushing hard on the way down.
130MM FORK
Because our 115mm of rear suspension outperforms similarly stroked forks and pairs well with our more forward biased geometry.
