These Forks Are Better Than Yours. Why Isn't EVERYONE Using Them?

Adam Scroxton is diving into the weird and wonderful world of linkage forks. From the early Lorwill Leader to the futuristic Trust Shout, these designs promised better small-bump sensitivity, reduced brake dive, and tunable axle paths… so WHY don’t we all ride them today? Adam takes us through the history, the pros and cons, and asks the big question.. Should linkage forks make a comeback, or are you firmly ‘Team Telescopic’?
