Thanks... Glad you like the project.
I was thinking the exact thing for a rear suspension. Having some sort of linkage to take the pivot motion of the swing and turn it into a linear motion to push against a shock in line with the frame.
This idea has been surpassed by my idea to copy goped's CIDLI design. Which using polurathane and a square inside another square ofset at 45... The internal square should only just be able to rotate inside the outer square. When the internal square is offset the little triangles which are around the edge are filled with poly. When the suspension pivots the inner square rotates into the poly which provides the suspension.
Here is link to image, as it did not embed well http://content.foto.mail.ru/mail/mak-zy/720/s-807.JPG
My design will change from this as in this design the poly is used to align the axis too. I would user bearings either side so the poly was just for suspension.
60mph is the goal, but definatly wont be riding around like that. Just needed a new project so I thought I would give it a go
