Dan, I don't know if this will help you, but I have a Dossche Sport jersey that a friend gave to me. He got it while touring in belgium (15-20 years ago) and told me some short story about the shop being run/owned by some of Eddy Merckx's family. Let me know if you'd l ike me to hit him up for more info. -Tony Pereira

The lugs are nash and are squared off. the bottom bracket has 3 cuts in it like many italian makers used. the BB is english threaded and tips/dropouts are campy. And perhaps most importantly...the serial number: 91005201
