Another bizarre linkage fork design
« on: July 29, 2009, 10:10:35 am »
Bored today, can you tell?
I found a German website that sells these...crazy fork design, the GA-Force Kilo:

Check out the YouTube video:


Almost looks like an AMP crossed with that Specialized frame that had a shock on one of the seat stays!

Interesting that the shock is offset and attaches to one fork leg.  Seems like they would've gone the extra step and figured out a way to remove the opposite fork altogether, a la Cannondale Lefty.  I imagine they engineered it out, but my first thought is, "I wonder if it binds up?".
