No kidding, look closely and imagine how the 2 linkages interact. The V10 has a much smaller "inner" linkage, but the number of pivot points and the relationship between them is the same, just to a different scale. The wheel axle pushes up on the top linkage, whilst pulling on the bottom linkage which acts like it's own single pivot swingarm against the shock. On the V10, that's the black onodised piece that is almost hidden behind the crankset, so relative size is very different, but the action is the same. Ummmm am I making sense? Anyway, look closely and judge for yourself.

no its not as the bottom bracket isnt on the chainstay
plus the wheel doesnt follow the same path as a single pivot
