Abstract: We construct a flexible (non immersed) suspension with a hexagonal equator in Euclidean 3-space and study its properties related to the Strong Bellows Conjecture which reads as follows: if an immersed polyhedron $CalP$ in Euclidean 3-space is obtained from another immersed polyhedron $CalQ$ by a continuous flex then $CalP$ and $CalQ$ are scissors congruent.
