Yep. Pro and sleek. I'm still not sure but those are different and kinda refreshing. But now, we need an all black fork.
Stanchion graphics on the totem kicks ass too.
Hmm I see where you are getting at. Personally I'm a very big fan in a very minimalist and generic look as these 2013 forks look now.
I'm not into too flashy aggressive styling because I feel like they are just very neat and interesting at the beginning but a year into owning them I lose fondness for them quite quick and get sick.
Minimalist and generic looks will never go out of style. Always be slick and sick.
The best analogy I can think of at the moment is how the Merc SLK evolved.
My favourite generations would be the R170 and R172
R170 generation was smooth and roundish. To this day I find it interesting to see on the road.
R171 generation had an incredibly aggressive front end with a sharp edged nose angled down and a menacing grill.
R172 generation is quite laid back and shows some resemblance to the R170 and has the defining look of the R171, but without the aggressive corners and grill.
With the R170 and R172 having a less out going look will forever be something interesting to most eyes because it appeals a bit to both sides. Sure it's a little boring to some, but no one will ever hate the look because of the less aggressive one sided styling of the R171. With the R171 you make a definite hate and love group, but the middle group stays murky.
Any ways thanks for showing me your insight and I hope you enjoy mine!

Tripping balls bro.
Seeing SHOX written like "ROCKSHOX" really throws me off
