It's different. Unless anodized, Ti bikes are inherently less unique than bikes that might have a fancy paint job. The silver fork really added something to the Moots, but now it's just another Ti bike with a black fork.
I hear you, for a short time I was going to pass on the moots fork and am now very glad I didn’t...
I was planning on painting any future black fork to match - RAL 9007 a la -
I know... Still, black forks are the new chrome, it saves money and reduces inventory but it just cheapens the overall look. Of course in Moots' case they're all the same colour anyway so it shouldn't matter.
