I had a nice long drawn out response written up for you but I dont see a reason to post it. Im sure youd say I was wrong anyway.
Hum, so you are defining "progressive" as losing damping rate at the same rate that you are losing spring rate?Sorry, don't buy it. Shackle angle plays a role in a lot of things, damper progression or digression is not one of them. I define "Progressive" as an increase in effective dampening rate from full droop to full bump. If the damper starts out leaned over and as the suspension compresses they become more verticle the effective damping rate increases. No way can mounting geometry ever make a damper position sensitive to the degree that a by-pass is. By doing it my way you get a mild increase near full bump, but nothing close to the sort of stiff damping/bumpstop effect that is possible with a by-pass damper.
