Marin = Quad Link
The only thing I really dislike abount SP is that the suspension is not very active under braking situations. (Brake Jack /Squat) Also, depending on thier design, pedal feedback is more apparent in SP designs than most other systems. Pedal bob is also more in SP designs and they've become dependent on a platform shock for better pedaling these days. This results in a loss of small bump reaction. The rocker link designs help reduce this effect by increasing the leverage ratios.
Single pivots are nice becasue they are simple to maintain and are ideal for muddy riding conditions.
I've had to change the bushings on my Enduro after every season becasue of the play it eventually develops.
