Yes, I'd forgotten that until reread some of this thread : )
Winston said you'd been over - what are you getting done to the forks?
Amazingly, Winston has already done all the above tasks and sent it to the shot-blaster.
The paint has always been a bit of a mystery to me but I took the forks off for the first time and found out more... I thought it was just purple paint that had faded a bit and gone a wonky pink colour in some areas.... turns out the pink is original and deliberate. Makes it look like flip-paint in some lights. Unfortunately, it'll be loosing the pink bits to save a bit of money on the respray... it'll just be plain darkish purple now.

Does Mario do iridescent stuff anyway? It's a nice frame, simple colour with look good.
Winston is shortening the older Varonha forks, I'm trying something... (axle to crown was based on carbon forks equivalent for the frame, I had all kind of multipurpose intentions for the frame, hence the gappy look. Want to see how the bike handles if I cancel that... I'd checked how the angles were affected on CAD a while back, it's almost négligeable)

Oh, I remember seeing that nice Joe Waugh on my old commute... Doesn't it have that iridescent kind of paint?
I saw Winston and Mario last Friday, dropped my galaxy for re-tracking and my old Varonha forks for some modifications, was nice to see them! (Hadn't seen Winston in years)
