Can you tell me what they weight and any ideas on what year they are?

Just spotted the ‘American built’ sticker.

Any retro experts know what means?
Always assumed from BITD that Tange (Prestige) = made in Japan.

Maybe it was just the steel fork legs??

I appreciate there is a Bontrager connection with the crown design.

Lots of questions!

Also makes me interested to consider them for my Bonty Race OR to replace RSMag21+Bonty crown…

Basically Tange licensed the design from Bontrager and then eventually Bontrager ended up producing the fork for them in the US.
