So - You agree that a revolver shackle gives useful traction when drooped, and it is not leaving the drooped tire unweighted.

I wish you'd made that clear...all those physics references claiming the tire had ZERO traction made me think that was your point, and, as THAT was the MYTH...

...That's what I was addressing.

OK, you can wipe off the face paint.

As I stated as well...there's no point in a Revolver shackle if you have a flexy leaf pack, its overkill...

As I stated...the perfect function for the revolver is when you need a STIFFER leaf pack to handle heavy loads...but want the DROOP of the flexy pack for articulation.

The Myth was that this droop did not provide traction......

Now that we all agree that the Revolver's Droop provides traction as good as, or better than a regular shackle's traction...

The Myth is FINALLY Busted.

Sorry for the earlier confusion.
