Abstract

See full text

A front suspension (4) of the telescopic type with anti-dive effect, comprising at least one sheath (32) and at least one stem (36), housed and guided telescopically inside said sheath (32) according to a direction of the fork axis Z-Z, the suspension (4) comprising a foot (44) associated to the sheath (32) or to the stem (36) that rotatably supports a wheel spindle (44) of an associable front wheel (12) defining a rotation axis X-X, a braking device (52) for the associable front wheel (12), having a support (56) rotatably mounted with respect to the wheel spindle (44) so as to be able to oscillate about the rotation axis X-X. Between the support (56) of the braking device (52) and the foot (44) of the suspension (4) are interposed transfer means (64) of the braking force, exerted by the braking device (52), on an element (32, 36) between the sheath (32) and the stem (36) that does not support the foot (44). Said transfer means (64) comprise a cam (68) hinged to the foot (44) in a first hinge point (72), kinematically connected to the braking means, and mechanically connected to a portion of the suspension (4) integral with the element (32, 36) between the sheath (32) and the stem (36) that does not support (56) the foot (44) so as to transfer thereto, in the direction of the fork axis Z-Z, a part of the braking force.
