p3riderforlife-> who need brakes they just give you an option to pussy out i dont think bender needs them he just hucks off anything in sight no matter how big it is ( just jokeing you do need brakes)
check out santacruz's ''stupid bike'' its basically 2 front triangle of a bullit welded together which means 2 boxxer wc's.
rear would perform very badly fdorks would be more of a problem than a help not designed for rear geometries wheels would be too heavy for economic movement and major weak spot above bb. nice decals though could be very nice piece of kit with a little tweaking
its a joke man relax most people look and enjoy not spend 2 to 3 hours analyzing how well it would work
Seriously, are you trying to sound clever? If so, it's not working. I LOL at this statement 'too heavy for economic movement'.
I agree its abiously a joke i mean really a bike with no brakes... Let just say on the plus side you can bar spin but a fork as a rear shock wtf???
hahaha to rossgirvan....i didnt no bikes were so economicly based hahaha
...Guys look at the bright side, dumb people make life better =]

I think a curb would break that frame with head angle like that. The beck would squat lots too and make it even worse, lol.
HAHAAH! Thank you, you must be a professional bike CAD designer. You know so much. " LOOK AT THE HEADANGLE" So old and lame excuse. It f*ckin Death proof man. Look at it carefuly.
its not death proof cuz it isnt a real bike. its a drawing!
lol, nice tho, looks sick. lovin the moto front fork!

sweet dont mean 2 be one of those asses who dises ure desighns butit wont work the reard fork would snap. it looks sweet ill try putting that in my desighns
this was always going to get some criticism from those who take things too seriously. I think it's a fun idea. Do some more!
r u actually serious? the ammount of bullshit some people say on sites like these is actually ridiculous! lol

wouldn't it be a better idea to use something more then a roco? the roco would just bottom out before the rear fork would (wow thats weird to say). so it would just be like sticking two rear shocks on it, well three technically if your counting the two sides of the fork.
lmao great job, looks sick, only one problem, its to long, like the angle of the fork would break on impact, it would have to be on more of an upset then layed out like it is, but still awsome design, nice job!
ok its good but the headtube looks a bit small and i dunno if the fork in the back would work with the rear shock like if they would compress the same or jsut bend the fork
[Reply]
wow! just awsome. nice honda mxer with a bike crank and seat. head looks a little weak. at least its original.

haha, thats rad. front brake only eh? i like the string for a chain too. but that is rad, nice, bro.
that rear suspension idea has already been done. i saw a picture quite a while back with forks that replaced a part of the rear triangle
it would not work the rear suspension, look at the lincage near the bottom bracket, the wheel path woould not follow with the drop off in the back, funny drawing though
i think it is more "life proof". you would be so confidant you would huck yourself off the biggest cliff in the state and die
hey , tink tat the rear bomber wont work properly!...it has got a very small angle between the swingarm n the fork, due to it , i tink the fitting of the bomber will get losened up!....but overall the design is really cool!....
Even BENDER wouldn't ride that, and he'd just crash if he did. You little kids can go cry now. Tell your mommies I'll be over after daddy goes to work.

that is gonna weigh a tonne lmfao u will have to add a engine to set ya self off onit theres ne way ya can pedal that thing
ive seen an old giant(i cant remember,but im pretty sure) with something like a fork on the rear,ill go try and find it.
[Reply]
thats a weird looking desing, but like someone else said where is the back brake? and i think bender just drops of things that are huge but doesent have much style at all which i think is more important thatn again props to him for attempting a 50ft drop that was quite ahead for the time1
Look mate, stop doin these stupid pitures for people that dont care, cus ur rubbish at photoshop...
WHY would you put a fork on the back?!!! that's just STUPID!!
waste of money, waste of time....
shut up

josh bender is a gay! no cycling skills, just a sick bike.. i want to see him riding downhill or jumping 3 meters drop with regular downhill bike.. hes suck
id like to see bender try, hell probably get axed on the run in due to lack of something called SKILL!!
that rear fork design actually exists. giant made one a longgg time ago with both a fork and rear shock.
that is just stupid; the direction in which the wheel moves is different to the forks path...meaning the rear suspension will be inactive and the forks will snap
you should throw another duel crown onthe back instead of a single, it would work better, and look pretty fu**ing cool too

Haha.. I love how people think that having a fork for the rear suspension wont work. Matter of fact, back in 1997 Giant made a DH bike with a fork as part of the rear suspension.
Here is a picture of it:

wow, i love the rear fork setup! made me laugh when i realized there was a 66 in the rear! good job, this is great
no question bender has balls of steel but he has no style and near to no skills, the pro biking community think hes a bit of a bogan
he has photoshoped it and done ya nice job...at first glance it fools u but take a longer look n ya can se...nice try m8

wow there is a lot of stiffs on this site. its called having FUNwhen you have nothing better to do. its pretty sick bro
Sh!t bike. Photoshoped or Fireworked.
Look at the top tube. The guy used black lines to draw the top tube,
and then filled that space with red colour. And that's not a chain
it's a peace of sting(line).
Give me props.

I think its do-able, but the motorcycle brakes would be too powerful for something this size, can you say "endo on the first grab?"

sry guys and girls this has nothing to do with biking but does any one notice that pretty much every flag in the world has red on it??
[Reply]
on the flag topic, thats y the olympic rings are those 5 colours. cos u'll find at least one colour on any world flag!
and i rly hate this pic
and i rly hate this pic
the funny thing is that still only has 7 inches rear travel. so it really would help at all of huge stuff. think about it

There was actually a production bike made by Marin in the late 80's with nothing more than a fork mounted in place of the seat stay's.
[Reply]
manitou already had the idea of mounting a fork as their rear shock, ill post a pick in my album under manitou frameset.

did u deliberatly do no back brake so tht wen some guy tries to back out of drop he will go over the handlebars n have to do it anyway
so ur in a no win situation
