Definitely looks like a ‘tribute’, not the real deal.

whoever performed the present respray did not bother to remove the head cups
appears they wished to reproduce the Holdsworthy team orange colour but were unable to locate the correct paint to do it so they ended up with this
see nothing to suggest a Holdsworthy product
the dropouts with the offset eyelets are something common on Nippon products of this time, although NERVEX produced a similar set
no guesses as to who produced it but would guess a national origin of Nippon
would expect a high-tensile tubeset
fork likely to be an "off the shelf" product from one of the Asian specialty fork producers such as Akisu, Lung, Nissan or Tange
steerer probable to be marked with one of these names
