Sugino 75 cranks and BB installation question:

Hi guys, I have a set of sugino 75 cranks with the 75 BB coming int he mail soon and I want to be able to have the tools ready and know my stuff before they get here.

I've read the maintain your sexy track BB thread over and over to get the visualization.
I currently have an SE draft lite which the company says has a Euro BB. I'm 99% sure that it's English threaded. If someone knows of this bike and knows that it isn't, please tell me so i'll have a good reason to buy a sealed bb. It is also a square taper, so will the park tool ccp-22 remove it regardless if it is ISO or JIS? again i'm 99% sure that it's ISO because it's a low end bike. I want to remove the current cranks but not destructively such that i still be able to use them just in case something happens.

So from my research, the bike specific tools that I need to remove my current bb and install my 75's are:

park tool ccp-22
park tool green pin spanner: 2.9 mm
Lockring tool

Correct?

I'm not concerend about the various sized sockets and rachets and all that since i have a full tool set at home.

I see that the lockring tool is combined with the cup wrench (flattened circle tool) in the maintain your bb thread, but in the thread the OP does not use the cup wrench side. I already have a lockring tool so if i do not need the cup wrench then i obviously won't buy it. So do i need the cup wrench?

also, there is only one kind of 75 bb right?

this is the seller's image of the bb set:



lastly, any pointers when installing? I know to grease all threads, and i will have to buy a plastic accordion spindle cover.

sorry for all the questions, thanks for reading.
