Look at the lower links position. Way outside no triangulation at all. Just remember to much articulation is a bad thing.

You get it to flex like that by making sure there is no binding in the links and coils. Why you would want to do that I have no clue.

Too much flex and it'll fall over too easily, keep it to one tyre diameter max
