Cos of all the judyring they did.
someone's wife? Paul Turner's?
Remember the Judy promotional magazine RS published in the mid 90s?
What was that called?
I dont know , but didn't earlier forks ( quad 21 for example ) have 'judy jacks' that separated the elastomers?
I really, really hope it was an early project name inspired by an engineer's girlfriend.

I always pronounced it as juddy and in the isolated world of 90's mountain biking I think all our enclave did.
