Suspension Fork for Road Bikes
The fork comes in two parts. The alloy top section is joined to the lower, magnesium forks by a pivot that juts out behind the fork, just under the down-tube. A piston and coil-spring sit vertically between these two parts and give 30mm, or just over an inch of travel to soak up cobblestones, curbs and small potholes.

that fork reminds me of the amp fork, which was my favorite MTB fork. i believe an amp-equipped bike was also used at paris roubaix the year after gilbert duclos lasalle won the first time.
