Subject: [CR]CYCLO dropouts

I would like to know more about a bike that I have. The left rear dropout has several things stamped on it in addition to the serial number. One stamping reads "CYCLO". There is something in front of that which I can't make out. The right rear dropout also has several phrases stamped on it. One appears to end with the word "design". What kind of dropouts are these? The bottom lug is stamped "NERVEX" with a long series of numbers below. The seat lug has 72 degrees on it. I am assuming that all of the lugs are Nervex because of the bottom lug. Is that a safe assumption?
