"A" style vs Mono style swinger

Seems like every time my bike gets ridden, it's at the track.

I'm going to be upgrading my bike soon. (Forks, frame, swinger).

Just wondering if there are any advantages, disadvantages between the 2 swingarms?

i think the monos get more travel but then you have to buy a special shock too

Re: "A" style vs Mono style swinger

A-Frame for stockers playin around in the backyard, Mono for serious racers at an MX track...LOL JK...Mono has longer travel, looks better, but $$$More. I use a sano MX styled swinger cuz I never liked the A-Frame.
