Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

This is the bike. Will this frame take any 68mm English bottom bracket? Or does it's age mean it takes some antiquated standard? Thanks in advance!

Well it says "BB Shell Width 68mm English". I'd say that means it will take a 68mm bracket, with English threading.
