And the front fork looks like aluminum. It should polish up nicely.
I'm looking forward to restoring and riding it at our next C&V event.
That's awesome! Although you're certainly free to do whatever you want with it, no worries.
As for the fork - it's a matte finish on it - no shining up. I'm not sure what material it is honestly, but I assume it's aluminum. I'll have to look more closely. I wish I'd kept the old RD, but I don't think I did...will have to scour the garage shelves to be certain.
My buddy will be happy to know it's going to someone who appreciates it!
