Patent attributes
A two-wheel vehicle suspension linkage, including a shock and a shock extension assembly, is provided. The shock may include first and second mounting axes operably connected to two linkage bodies. The shock may be positioned to provide linear resistance between the two linkage bodies having relative motion with respect to one another. The shock extension assembly may include a first extension body and a second extension body. Each of the first extension body and the second extension body may include a first mounting axis and a second mounting axis positioned with respect to one another in a non-parallel mounting orientation. The extension bodies may be pivotally connected to the suspension linkage so that the first mounting axis of the first extension body is collinear with the first mounting axis of the second extension body. The second mounting axis of the first extension body may be collinear to both the second mounting axis of the second extension body and to one of the shock mounting axes defining a non-effective shock damper axis.
