ID'ing an old steel fork
A question for veterns. I have an early 80's Cannondale S"-something" road bike. obviously it is aluminum, but it has a steel fork. I saw another bike(different make) on ebay with what I believed to be the exact same fork. Here is what my fork looks like:

Now does this fork look familiar to anyone? was it a generic one that many companies supplied with their bikes back in the early 80's? I assume it came with the bike because the paint is original on the bikes frame and the paint on the fork looks identical. but obviously i dont know for sure because I picked up the bike back in May, and it is 20 years old.
