thank you for the response non-fixie!
so much for the fork ends; odd combination of nice forged ends with threaded eyelets paired with a junkmeister crown.
spent a few minutes at google images attempting to locate a photo of one of the notched bb's with the toothed washer in place without success.
will post again once i have had the opportunity to check me headplate files.
btw - did you find a marking on the steerer? if you have opened the bb did you check to see if there are any seamless tubes therein dwelling?
