Hmm. I don't know that I have a pic before I had it powder coated. I certainly don't have one handy. It wouldn't be impossible for me to be mis-remembering, I suppose. Anton is a pretty scrupulous researcher, though, so I would be inclined to believe what he found. My Voyageur has a Tange fork.
It's worth noting, too, that those small, rectangular "Made In Japan" stickers often fell off or were removed by owners.
