I quite like it. And it's an Ellsworth so that's weird.

Yep, that’s a nice bike. I like designs that keep the suspension low and compact in the frame, another reason I like Giant’s approach to frame design.

They sure can be! High service intervals and creaky crowns aside they feel nice and look sexy.

But large rocks don't make the seat push down in motion.

Correct, but it best demonstrates the arc of the suspension (Which i couldn't get my head around)
