Pace RC405
The RC405 is a floating pivot design; the rear triangle is attached to the front by two pairs of linkages (similar to Santa Cruz, Intense, Iron Horse and Giant designs). Where the RC405 is a bit different is that the rear shock is not anchored to the front triangle – it sits between the leading ends of the linkages (imagine a finger and thumb squeezing a jelly bean).

I am selling one (bought aug 2008) in the classifieds – check it out.
Can they really justify the price when you compare the design to the £400/£500 lesser known Viper RC1.0 ?
I ride a 2010 ’405 and I have to say I love it. The only downside for me is that the paint finish is not that durable. I have been riding it regularly for about 4 months now and the paintwork chips and scuff really easily.
