Was originaly a mono-shock !
Someone has stuck a pair of them on to squeeze into the twinshock scene here in the UK. Looks weird, but goes like hell. Bit on the weighty side though.

Proper CCM's had the requisite number of shocks !

That CCM exemplifies what's wrong with the Brit and especially Dutch twin shock rules, the fitting of twin shocks to later bikes, making a mockery of the original intentions of the class. That CCM is ugly and a pitiful mistreatment of a classic machine.
