And for decades people used steel forks without complaint that they were too harsh. They absorbed bumps as best as they could without being wimpy.

Like bostondrunk said; rider position, tire width, and pressure a contribute to ride comfort.

S shaped seatstays/chainstays?
Dropped seatstays?
Ultra small diameter seatstays
Specific shaped chainstays?

I’m very curious.
