In theory it should have worked really well- just think how easy it would have been for servicing to have the same forks front and rear. It's a real shame it never worked as well as it could have done or really caught on that well.

well it might have worked better with better fork internals,but i thought they looked uber sexy,and it was just the start of full sus,although mountain cycle had a good bike with the san andreas.

The reason it didn't and will never take off is the fact that the the rear forks would have to be angled in the direction of travel for them to work correctly (like your front froks) like so / / not / \.

nice one! although the shock has no need to be that big

finding a tough enough spring of that size without too much weight will be hard haha

but again, good job

well when you open one from the internet archive, on the top there are like 4 options, year, travel, origin, and i forgot the others. but i just selected 2007 bikes from the year dropdown, and then you press search web library at the bottom, and then scroll down to specilized
