Springer forks

I've only just seen this type of fork design, I guess I'm slightly too young to have noticed it when it was popular. Perhaps someone here has used one with a folder, perhaps a Raleigh 20 mod?

I wonder how well they absorb bumps given that the direction of travel is clearly inefficient.
