They had two forks linked to oscillating arms at the top and bottom, with a single shock near the steerer. Here's a link to different types of the "alternative" forks: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12891 I have a feeling that their limited travel, higher weight and complicated contruction did not favourably compare to the present fork technology. The Whyte PRST-1 XT used a front suspension similar to the BMW Telelever. Cheers! Sami Good Morning Julian,
