Both the breaks were about 1"-2" above the beautiful curly lugs so it
could easily be missed by the mechanic. One person I talked to said
they thought it was done to keep water out of the BB, but I'm sure
that was just speculation. It boggles my mind why anyone would do it
and was just one of those things that was in the back of my mind
until the subject of plugs came up. My guess was that the paper was
used to clean out the seattube of cutting fluid after prep and not
pushed all the way down and out. Disgruntled employee maybe?
