For longer shock travel? thats a misconception. Shocks are same length for both types used on either swingarm, its only the angle of travel thats the difference.
at the wheel, there is more travle on an MX style swinger compares to an A frame one.

Wrong. A style usually runs 260mm shocks, mx style usually runs 280mm. That makes a hell of a difference.

Talking Re: funky bikes

Actually the bikes on funky bikes are realy good for the price. my friend has one and has rode it hard and its still going after a year, the swing arm may look tacky but its actualy a realy good heavy dutie swing arm.
