Anybody 'round here heard or seen anything regarding the reservoir coil-over Marzocchi is developing?

I am sure that the technology is probably pretty similar to the fifth or the Swinger 6, but I heard that somehow the piggy-back chamber swings 180 degrees around the actual shaft shock, for easy access baby (as Eazy E said) and to make it easy to situate in a crowded chassis. Anyway, just curious...any 'rumours' floating around up there about this thing?

Here are some shocks but not the one your talking about (http://www.marzocchi.com/spa/mtb/products/rear/default.asp?p=1&LN=UK&Sito=mtb)

It is in the latest MBA issue.

The piggy back on the shock they featured does rotate...BUT, the shock featured is a prototype, and there was speculation the rotating piggy back may have only been there to ease it fitting to other bikes to test it on. There was no confirmation on it being a production feature....or even when the shock would be a production item.

It was featured on what looked like a Santa Cruz VP Free...but they only showed a portion of the top tube.

...the one on the right looks like the one that was featured...but may not be exactly the same.

It looks exactly like that Boss shock, but with a blue spring....
