bmax 4iii rear mounted shocks

[ja76]

As per title has anyone ran the rear shocks on the back of the arm and what's the benefit?

My understanding was it was for lower traction. I have it on rears, can't say I can tell a difference

I had mine on the rear last week at Seaham trying it, gave me a lot more traction going through corners on power

Makes it feel like the older car. Which isn't a bad thing.
