apr 1, 1901 - Telescope Shock Absorber
Description:
C. L. Horock designs the "telescope" shock absorber, using a piston and cylinder fitted inside a metal sleeve, with a one-way valve built into the piston. The result is a smoother ride and less lingering bounce.
The telescope shock absorber is still used today.
