Hi Vi,
I whould not recomend front suspention for a python.
I build my first Python with front and rear suspention, but removed the  front 
suspention directly after I was able to ride it. It took a lot of power because 
it  reacted to the pedaling. 
I still have the rear suspention on my old python, and it is working fine, but
I startet an other Python yesterday and it will have no suspention.

I am also considering suspension for python, front at least.  Here is my study 
so far,
