The Edison is 150F & 140R. You guys are correct about the fork being a Condor, but Bionicon designed it and partnered with SR to build it. The cartridge that makes it work is all Bionicon though.

Lidarman, you're right. This is not the 200mm model. I think it's 120mm.
There's a 200mm pictured here too. It's the new hucker and it's 38 lbs.

Somebody else tried adjustable head angles a few years ago. Never heard anything else of it.

I rode one of these recently and didn't feel anywhere near 200 mm. You sure that is 200 mm front and rear or 200 mm total travel (front + rear)?
I am impressed with this idea. You shift negative chamber air via a valve from the front to the rear to change head angle for accending or decending. Clever idea. The only problem is that it does require air suspension (no coils allowed) and damage to the fragile-looking pneumatic tubes would render the suspension useless.
The price is reasonable for this bike as well.
