   I quite like companies that try and do this kind of stuff.

   I don't see any mention of a damper though

   Looks very long axle to crown, presumably would need a suspension specific frame...

   Remember the Rockshox Ruby road fork? suspension on a crosser?

    Surely that's pivoted the wrong way? The wheel would have to move foreward over the bump?

    Nope, I would struggle to be interested even if the decimal point was moved one number to the left.

    In fairness, Suntour didn't market it as a light fork - they say it was to take the sting out of the commute.
