Is that the Auto Adjusting Suspension brains? AAS adjusts shocks based on dive and squat, so makes sense to me to have it in extreme rear to me.

Seems like I remember removing it from an old GXL I had. I'm pretty sure it is AAS.

It is in fact the auto control unit for the auto adjusting suspension.
