More WTF then erm, ‘hardtail’ front with what look like roller skate wheels mounting the front wheel I don’t think that front end is a ‘hard tail’, look at the linkages and shock. Also although those wheels are roller skate size, I doubt they are. I do wonder how the front end is effectively braked though? Jon

Cute, but why o why would you put Ohlins on (F&R) It's probably a cheapo Chinese shock with a £1.50 Ohlins decal on it. Alex

Looks like it was made from the bits in the shed that you were told to clear out by the end of the weekend. 48 hours straight of work with a case of beer and junk food delivered by uber eats.

It’s actually quite interesting I think, a parrellelogram rear suspension, as well as the front end, monocoque frame/chassis. It was designed by Jack diffazio for mead and tompkinson and was nicknamed‘Nessie’ for obvious reasons, also raced Kawasaki 4’s as well. Fabulous bit of left field thinking.
