Does anyone recognize these Belgian cranks, BB and headset?
Any information about who made it would be appreciated.

I sure do not, but the BB and HS seem to say more than just "W": TWF...might help in searching, but other than "Williams" (which these are not AFAIK) I gots nothin.
EDIT: Nothing too helpful but there's some speculation that the company (and it was called TWF) was something that got acquired/merged with Stronglight, and might have been French, not Belgian...but very little info about any of it except their BB axles were hollow. |
I found this post by accident
Both are well Belgian production The headset is of high quality W, like Woit. See here https://veloretrocourse.proboards.co...2055/said-woit The crankset also W. like Warnant. See here https://veloretrocourse.proboards.co...-rare-et-vieux |
NIce!
Way to go Munny! Nothing like a productive response to a necro thread. |
Hey, it was slightly more than five years. Barely up to speed for a zombie post. Keep 'em coming.
