It did, until the introduction of the Overland 4 Springbase, Overland 4 does not change the road, but it does change the manner in which you can ride on it. It gives you comfort instead of dis-comfort. It gives you a smooth, sailing sensation instead of bouncing and swaying. The Diagonal attachment of Three-Point Canti lever Springsat the ends of a 1 30-inch Springbase gives long wheelbase road steadiness. letUverland 4 retains all the advantages lightness, econ omy,andcaseofhandling,of 100-inch wheelbase. y : : k This means an altogether new standard of riding comfort, a noteworthy reduction in the wear and tear which lessens the efficiency of a car.
