How about the one that was rebuilt a few years ago in Folsom.  It's a bike bridge now. 





The "tension" elements are not cables but the "bike chain" along the bottom of the bridge.  Break one and the whole bridge wants to come down.  That's why they quit building them over a hundred years ago.

Love this one, the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam:
