As per title, I'm a tart.

Looking at brakes and I see that the gold Formula Cura 4 are only a tenner more than those in black (including floating rotors).

Now my question is, is there much difference between the Öhlins Gold anodising and that if the Cura brakes?

They are a pretty different shade, the formula gold is a darker tone but more shiny if that makes any sense

Bike24 has offer today for pair of black Cura4s for 137€ (OEM package), that price would make me skip any colour coordination immediately.

The lack of twiddly adjust screws not an issue?

You happy with your Cura brakes?
