Uh.... please explain? I'm thinking there would be more disadvantages to this setup. Double the stiction, a looser feeling front wheel / just more play in the front wheel...?

I don't really take pictures unless I have to explain to someone why they need to replace worn or broken/mangled parts. I have random pictures on my phone but nothing that falls under the "super cool" category.

That's not just the way the light hits it... it's that gorgeous. The gold to pink transition is just a work of art

It's rainbow TiN. Different gasses introduced to the PVD chamber with the nitride changes the colors.

@deanwhite51 is correct, they're off Lee Hogan's bike. @slipdog is also correct, its a type of TiNi. but Hogan's bike is the only one I've ever seen with that particular color combo. I'm not sure who does the coatings, but his Instagram is: @leehogan_bcp he might have who does the coatings on there. thats where I got the pictures!

He gets them direct from showa because there was a Japanese guy named Takeshi Katsuya that raced the Aussie nationals here and he got good friends with him. So he’s Hogan’s showa connection for all this stuff.

You won't see this too often. WP52s with KYB Internals. If you can afford it, they're for sale.
