Help identify my new Limongi BB and lugs
Hi,
I just bought an early 90s (90-92) Limongi Special in Columbus SLX. I was not able to identify the BB (Italian) and the lugs on this bike. As you can see on the pictures, they all have a kind of flat section. Tried to find something but no chance. I told myself that it's time to submit the question to people more knowledgeable
.
Thanks for your help,
François

I've seen this series once before but blanking on the name, maybe it will click in later today. Pretty sure the original Italian set (which I think these are) was copied later by an Asian firm like Long Shen.
Bingo: this pattern is called "Nash" and not positive who made it first but possibly Silva, it's sold as a set (BB shell plus lugs) by Ceeway.
Additional edit: there's this old thread where a poster in Hungary had a "Pinarello" with Italian threaded BB shell, so possibly this frame also used the original Italian set that Long Shen copied, unfortunately the image links are broken except for one that shows the headlug:

The BB shell looks very much like this Gipiemme (VeloBase.com - View Single Frame Part) but without the 2 channels for the cables.
