I am in the market for a black 29er RockShox Reba, and about to buy one, but was given the option of "black" or "diffusion black". Being indecisive, and unable to find any information on these two different options online, I am somewhat fascinated and would love to know the
difference.

Please don't push me in a skip, I know it's petty, shallow and pointless, but I am quite a bike tart 🙂

IIRC, "diffusion black" was the matt black that was on my Pike, guessing the other black is the glossy one on my Revs.

as above, diffusion is matt, black is gloss, I'd go diffusion everytime, won't show scuffs and scratches as much for a start.
