If I purchase a SRAM crank with bottom bracket & bearings, will I still need new cups?
The bottom bracket cups will come with the bearings already installed. So you'll be good to go.

Cool! Same year as mine. I've owned it since 1998 though I don't use it much these days. Are you by any chance on Rennlist?
