I must admit initially thinking the fork might be form over function (and what form!) but then the old adage "if you have access to a 3d ti printer, this could work" sprang to mind - either way I want to see glamour shots of the whole lot mirror polished, cranks too.

The article mentions generative design, and we dont know what the inside of the forks look like. I'd assume he did more than 3D printed 2 tubes and called it a day. The trick is probably inside the forks.
Also, its so cool.

edit: Think something like this

Yeah, 2/3 of the fork including the crown look to have the same finish as the printed lugs so most likely some very clever 3d structure going on in there with some traditional twangy blades at the bottom to absorb road bumps... would love to see inside it - fully mirror polished of course
