Anyone out there with a blue frame and "matching" white fork?

I had a fork built and am now considering the paint scheme. Frame is blue with white lettering and white lug windows. I'm thinking of having the fork done in the reverse: white with blue lug windows.

Photos appreciated (yay, a "post your bike" thread)!!!

I've got a ti bike with a white fork and blue inner.

CAn't get a picture up for some reason -- getting a security token missing error, which is odd.

Funny with your handle you should ask that question.

“Lairy fork” is the correct term for a contrasting fork. Coined around 2012 by Richard Gearing of Australia.

check out my CSI....not a lugged fork, but painted to look like one.
