Headtube suspension is great. My Cannondale XS800 cx/road bike with about 30mm of front travel is still going strong after over 20 years. It eats up bumps on crap roads. My only concerns are getting it serviced and finding parts.

It looks like the steerer is a tapered 1.5 to 1 1/8 width. This is a great improvement over the cannondale fatty forks as these will fit in most frames. Have any of these come on the market yet, they would be an awesome gravel bike fork 👌

I watched the video again, you keep saying shock (damper) but I can't see one

Neither do I. Cnndl even at Fatty (back in the 90s) had an elastomer using a spring alone is ridiculous.

My Can o Ale Headshok is STILL working after 10 years. I had one damper replacement under the warranty and one service on that a year later. They are great when they work. Think of one with carbon elements, it could be under 1000 grams.

Isn´t "Headshock" a trademark by Cannondale and isn´t the needle bearing mechanism patented by them? Just a question out of couriosity.

I think this patent is over long ago.

From Scada’s blog “The best suspension solution, though, is a ‘headshok’-type as it were, not a traditional-weighty-twin stanchion mtb fork, with a coil spring on one side and fluid damper on the other.” www.scadatw.com/gravel-bike-suspension-fork/#testingprocedure

These guys are absolutely paying Cannondale royalties for this tech; they even use the word "Headshok". Lefty still uses this amazing tech. And you can still get Headshok forks, bet CDale still make 'em even.

can no do did it first and better in the late 80's! With a damper and only 1 special tool. Also, air springs in cannon dale are better than springs.

@@robertrodriguez8082 Eighty-Aid in Germany/Europe do the most world class race quality Headshok service and tuning if you've got the dough, but there are some adequate shops stateside that could service the old p-bone!

This is how not to copy a Cannondale Headshok!! Zero thought to damping or outer races!! Really bad effort and not uniqe in any way, this is a terrible copy of a Headshok!!

cannondale headshock =\

But without damping, just spring, I'd better go with a cromoly fork, weights less and does the job better.

I had a cannondale scalpel with a headshox fatty, it worked amazingly, but at some point the surface of the air spring was worn out and could not be repaired, then I bought a similar fork of the fally ultra dlr but removed from the cannondale bad boy and it worked disgustingly, it seems that in the bad boy the damper is configured more for driving on asphalt and it practically didn't work on a dirt road, I had to sell my scalpel because I was tired of messing with this fork, which, moreover, nowadays there are no spare parts. sorry for google translate )
