When they flex they absorb some of the twist (twist is induced by body roll), thus reducing the total torsional resistance of the entire assembly (like having a lighter bar). When they are set vertical they flex less and more of the twist is transferred to the bar/shaft. Thus increasing the total torsional resistance of the entire assembly (like having a heavier bar).

Hope that helps.
now that is fricken cool! i can imagine how well that adjustable one is. and the second pic shows only one side has the blade so one side is fixed. i wonder how they hold up though? i'm sure because it's race certified, it'll be fine on the street.
