Bikes: 07 Chumba XCL
From a couple searches, it looks like the Dakar is a 4-bar linkage. The XCL is a 4-bar with a Horst Link (the pivot in front of and below the rear dropout). The shocks were different on different builds, but I believe the rp23 wasn't offered in 2005. As for the frame I'd have to ride a dakar, but the Chumba is pretty beefy and stiff.





(He does live in Canada, right? I might be making that up.)
