That's some good intel - thanks!
So that seems to settle it: this is indeed a v1, but not one of the first 20

Exactly.
V2's top and down tubes are also from True Temper "Supertherm" butted tubes, like the V3, besides having a gusseted down-tube, a brake bridge & the cluster fork that makes them easily distinguishable.
The V1 and V3 fork legs are seamless, cold-drawn, 4130 "ProMoly Streamline Tubing" made in the USA by Plymouth Tube Co.

V1: First 20 had external headsets and non perforated dropouts

Geo of v1/3 differ slightly as in the TT of the V3 is slightly longer for each size.
Think that's it..
