I looked again and I don't think that is the original fork. The fork I remember had all the rake at the bottom, the way I like them.

The only info I have on these is Sheldon Brown's and Mike Kone's vintage bike thumbnails, where Crescent/Monarks are discussed. The dominant theme was poor finishing work and toe clip overlap. Did the toe clip overlap apply to all frames, even the big ones? (this is 62 cm.) The URL for those who are interested is http://ebay.com/<blah> owTutorial=0&ed=977506333&indexURL=0&rd=1 .
