i bought a early powerlite frame and am trying to get some help with it.
it is a pro size frame and has a euro bottom bracket.the tubing on the frame appears to be really small,especially the fork.at first i thought it was a mini but its a pro size.
can anyoe help me out with what model frame this is?were all early powerlites made like this?

I picked one up the other day of the same vintage, but mine has the US BB. The one I bought was from the original owner and he said it was called a Powerlite JR Pro when he bought it new.

Mine didn't have matching forks with it.

I do have era correct BB sets for yours for reasonable prices. Let me know if you need one.
