even if the single cams had more overall length of string/cable then it would be spreading the load over more length and reduces overall load on each........thus reducing chances for creep. This is why dual cam shoot through systems pretty much never go out of time.......4x cables and a string to spread the load over.
Actually my thinking here is flawed........on a single cam since the string is a continuous length the load would not be evenly spread like on a shoot through.......so I guess technically it would not be the same as a bow that has equal combined lengths in more sections. My apologies for the misinformation.
