the LHT was not designed to have a suspension fork .. more like an 80's Pre suspension MTB..

though, some like, German Tout Terrain's Silk Road, Were made to use a suspension fork,
as an Option.
The lack of being designed for suspension didn't stop us from putting them on. The LHT is a pretty beefy frame and should handle a reasonable suspension fork.

Tandem Tom's LHT is a 26" wheel, by the way. See post 3.
