(Conventional technology) The rear fork, which is generally adopted in saddle-type vehicles such as motorcycles, has a front end! 1. A suspension unit is interposed between the rear fork and the vehicle body, which is pivotably supported on the body side and rotatably supports the rear wheel between the rear ends. In addition, a rear fork including a fork portion having a rectangular cross section and an inner edge formed into a substantially U-shape in plan view is provided for practical use.
- (Problem to be solved by the invention) However, if the torsional rigidity between the left and right sides of the rear fork is low, deformation will be large during cornering or when driving force is applied to the rear wheels.

) is made of a metal such as aluminum light alloy or a hard composite material such as CFRP with a hollow rectangular cross section, has a transverse pivot tube (6) fixed to the front end, and has a flat inner edge (3) at the rear. It is formed in a fork portion (2) that is approximately U-shaped when viewed. End pieces (7), (7) are fixed to the left and right rear ends of this fork gB (2), and the front part of the fork (1) between the fork part (2) and the pivot tube (6) is provided with end pieces (7), (7). A rectangular hole (4) is formed that penetrates vertically, and left and right cushion arm brackets (8) are erected on the rear part of the square hole (4).

As is known, such a rear fork (1) is pivotably supported by a pivot tube (6) at the front end on the vehicle body side such as the frame, engine, etc., and has left and right end pieces (7) at the rear end, (7') The rear wheel is rotatably supported between the parts. Furthermore, the damper whose upper end is attached to the vehicle body is inserted into the square hole (4) in the front part, and the lower end of this damper and the cushion arm brackets (8) are pivotally connected by a link and a cushion arm. , thus connecting the rear fork (1) to the rear cushion unit.
