a picture would clarify...but the only bell this rings for me is a posting back a few months from a guy in NYC who showed a ALAN frame/fork labeled as a Concorde (with the "e") and it was definitely not a Bridgestone or Japanese product. He was asking what to build it up with. Now there WAS a JP bike that I think was Concord wihout the "e", and could have been a bridgestone and might even have been a "kabuki" type with steel tubes cast into Al "lugs"...but I don't know
