Rockshox Fork Upper Coatings Query.

jedi_master

The 2016 oem Reba's on Merlin have the gold coating and the non oem versions have the fast black uppers. Is there actually any difference in performance between the two coatings?

The Rookie

Yes, the colour.....in reality no difference at all except gold of course is faster!

It's just different colour anodising. Makes no difference to performance.

OK cheers.
