The forks look strange to me. As if they're made from flattish metal strip, like some European makes.

Re: Forum Picture?

Hi Bob,

I see what you mean.

I think it's an optical illusion from the dark color, the white dust, and the shadow created by the parallel running cable.. (-: ?

Hi Noam
I think you're right, that it's the fall of the light. The top of the forks around the check springs look tubular. Interesting shot though.
