Some good split down photos of the torsion bars.

Funnily,  they comment on "no springs" being present. All coil spring are also torsion bar type,  just wrapped in a convenient cylinder but it's the same action with the steel being twisted "torsionally" to give the sprung resistance.

They can both offer the same rate but with very different resonant frequencies for each type due to the material cross section.
