yes ive never saw one like it before.i did take close ups of the lugs,but they were blurry.i dont know what kind of metal was used on the lugs,i left it out in the rain for a few days after i polished them and a week later no rust?i did clear coat them anyway.ill get some pics tommorrow.
that is a nice frame. what are you going to do with it. the only thing i know is that it may be stainless steel? that would be very kool but i have never known anyone who has done that. interesting.

im gonna build a big old school hot rod!im havin a few crank pedal problems,i ordered some cottered pedals and they didnt fit so i gotta scrounge the junkyards.the brooks is sweet but ive never used one,ive always wanted one so i guess ill see what happens.
beast, if that bb has a seperate spindle you can put in a road or mtb 3 pc in it as long as the threads are the same. mine weren't on my superbe so had to use the same stuff. but i have another one the has the cotter cranks an i but a new mtb spindle and used my mtb cranks.works great

outlaw,i already tried a bunch of different cranks,its a wierd size.problem is nobodys seen a bb like this.or worked on a winora.i dont even know what year it is?cant find any info on west german bikes.someone suggested a peugeot?even the pedal arms are longer than any i have.im stumped.i tried a early 70s 10 sp bb and to it was loose.i might have to get the old bearing race brazed?ill try a 80s mntn bike bb next.
