now that most "new" evo or monkey frames are nowhere to be found, I feel they may come out with some sort of single pivot model, modeled after the monkey frame and perhaps with some sort of shock link (as seen on a prototype pict somewhere on this forum). the shock will be mounted in front of the "seat tube" a la Heckler. 5 to 6 inches of travel and marketed as an  "all mountain bike"
