is developing a long-travel leading linkage fork. 
Ashley Kalym, Founder of Rock Sled Suspension, gives us some insight into the what, how, and why of the long-travel fork he has been developing over the last 3-4 years.

Though uncommon, linkage forks are nothing new in the world of mountain biking. Trust Performance’s Shout and The Message multi-link forks did gain some traction for a short period of time, but the big brand suspension manufacturers have stayed away from the design, choosing instead to refine the damping systems of their traditional telescopic forks, while adding weight to and increasing the stiffness of the chassis. 
Get all the details at the link in bio.
