What does everyone think about going with a black front 19" wheel with stainless spokes
kind of the reverse of my rear wheel?

Buying a new Chrome ring would be nice but quite frankly most of the newer chrome stuff
i have bought doesnt seem to hold up I havent seen an aftermarket front spoke to compare
just going by the bars and Chrome cups I bought last year

I already painted my forks Black but been carrying them around for a while and Stipped them
today

The Headlight bracket will be going back black the chrome next to the aluminum isn't working for me

I had toyed with the idea of going Green with the forks to match the bike but think black is the color
any suggestions?

The original anodizing looks like crap it has faded so thats not an option
