Had this bike for a little while now. Its my first dive into SS, 29ers and rigid. Enjoying it all so far.

Only thing that bothered me about the look of my build was the fork. On One left the metal bare and silver. Thought it clashed in every picture I saw. Had some free time this winter break and went to work. Have a few pictures from before and after, what do you think?

Just simple black gloss enamel from Home Depot. It was bare silver metal before, so it painted pretty easy. Is holding up well so far except in the obvious places like the dropouts.
