Long travel bracket How can this thing give you a lower quad and longer travel AND make ur ride smoother? It looks like it just relocates the shock a bit.

It does relocate the shock mount. By putting the shock at a greater angle, it induces more stress on the shock at rest, and that makes it smoother. Theoretically, when the shock is at such an angle, it will push the a arms farther away because the mounts are lower. It lowers ride height because of the increased shock force. Im not sure if all the claims are true, but I think this is how it is "supposed" to work.
