The details:

All black steel frame and fork.
shaped tubing to some extent, welded no crown fork, sloping top tube 1-1/8" threadless
2 sets of bottle braze ons
2 cable stops for rear brake on lower left side of top tube
fender eyelets on front and rear
rack braze-ons on upper seat stays (water bottle style in the tube)
take a seat collar
brake bridge for recessed brake.. looks like a 700x28 tire will fit.

Any ideas what this could be? Seems similar to some IRO,s but doesn't match exactly.

Any pictures?

Won't that ruin the game?

How slopey is the slope?

yeah I should know better. I'll snap some photos later. it's clearly something mass produced and low end so it might not be possible to figure out where it came from.
