Like now everyone has been gettin into this seat post t-tube stuff
i was thinkin if u could get a mountain bike seat post with suspension that fits in a stem you could have suspension without using suspension forks????
For all you Super Modders i challenge you to see if it can work.

But isn't the point of suspension to be below the headtube so it absorbs only the impact of the wheel? I'd think it would just mess you up with a lot of tricks like scooterflips and barspins...

I it worked it'd be hella dope. Imagine the extra pop you could get from them. You would preload into a jump.

Do you pop off your handlebar? If so, you must have some really interesting style and Id like to see it. I guess that's because you're into pogo sticking, haha.
 
or u could use your arms and legs as suspension and the suspension being above the headtube would just feel super weird and after awhile the seatpost would get really lose and ive never seen a seat post that had suspension and bmx style guts

i would accept your challenge but im not gonna waste my time and money on that my shadow post was hard enough to do as it is hahaha
 
it wouldnt preload the wheel tho because its above the headtube, it would just make your scooter feel like the headset was loose
