Hello all.
Just bought a early 80's Huffy 27" road bike. Seeing as to how cheap it was even back in its original days, I only want to leave the frame and upgrade it as much as possible with slightly used parts from eBay. I figure it is going to be a great experience before moving on to more advanced and expensive stuff.
So the big question from the newbie is: How do I know which parts are compatible with it? What kind of bottom bracket and crankset can I install on it?
Thanks,
Eugene.
