Ive just acquired myself a lovely poo brown Juchem frame from sunny germany which is confusing me a little. I think it dates back to 1989 and on the face of it seems to have an 1 1/8" headtube until that is I hold a headset up to it, it seems to be slap bang inbetween 1 1/8' and 1 1/4". The internal is very uniformly sized both top and bottom so I do not believe it to be a worn/flared headtube. Are there any folks on here who have such a frame with any pointers towards what I might have? Digging on line I found some pics where a 1990 frame seemed to run a painted in reducer cup, I was wondering if I should have something similar in mine.
I know these are as rare as squid feathers over here but im hoping one of you bike fiends might have a few pointers.
Thanks
Edit.....Heres one of the pics that ive found that appear to run a reducing cup of sorts
