This high end 90's MTB had a cable instead of a down tube—and it's SMOOTH!

Today, we’re going to take a close look at the Slingshot Bike, a 90’s MTB frame with an early full suspension concept. Where the top tube meets the seat tube is a “flex plate”, and in place of the down tube is a cable with a spring on the end. The company at the time had made a BMX bike, a triathlon bike, and even a road bike concept using the same insane suspension design.

Thanks Jasen Thorpe and Andrew Juskaitis for your knowledge and time. I would not have learned nearly as much about the Slingshot without your help.
