It probably works just like a forklift chain.  It doubles the extension distance
but cuts the mechanical advantage in half.  TLC probably is using it the same
way they use the chain in the new forklift set.  One serious question does
arise- Why don't they just make longer pistons?  What about a one-way telescopic
piston?

Even though I am partial to construction equipment, I like the new Motorcycle
the best.

Sorry I have no pictures or drawings to show you.

Take care.

IMHO TLC is not producing longer cylinders becase when piston is sticked out it can become bent in two ways 1. as a rod 2. in the place where rod's connected to the piston (inside) it is a very big problem to make piston's rod stiff and seal it up (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)
