This product is labelled as whyte but clearly the bike is grey! small amount of street cred for being in the big dog ... Apart from that i see no problems.
The front forks look like they may track slightly eliptically, rather than straight "in and out." That may take a bit of getting used to if it's true, but it may even be an advantage.

This is from the past, about 2001 or so. I had a go of one in about 2003 in Epping Forest, Essex, Uk when I was out riding one day. It rode just like any other bike and felt...ordinary, or nice, depending on ones perspective.

Yeah I remember these from years ago, they were supposed to be amazing but for some reason the company dropped the idea and went with more traditional telescopic forks, I guess they where heavy but tracked really well, especially under braking, like BMW bikes. I remember they where very expensive too.

this looks just wobbly...
