It's a pretty simple leading link arrangement.. the front stirrup links to the fork with 4 side plates and 8 friction washers sandwiched between the plates.. the acorn nuts tighten to increase or reduce friction (damping) .. the top of the stirrup uses a spring over a shaft which slides within the fork and a threaded knurled knob to adjust static ride height .. the spring can be changed for a stiffer overall ride if desired.. it' a lightweight, smooth operating design that has been in use on the spaceframe moultons for over 30 years.

moulton tsr30. I once rode sesamecrunch's (yes i blame him!) so when i test rode one again i was smitten. Now i will have to sell the dahon jetstream ex and possibly the pacific reach if. I plan to add a honey brown brookes b17 with cooper rails & rivets & matching brooks tape. The front wheel has a son 20 hub so i will either add a sschmidt edelux, supernova e3 triple or b&m busch & müller cyo t senso plus. The latter seems by far the best value for money. I hope to get a b&m e-werk at some stage to for longer rides to power my phone on gps with the excellent sportstracker on longer rides.
