Yup. It's a Motobecane... Swiss you say?

It's the original BB in the bike... so... I'll will give the repack a try and see what happens.

I hear you about the breaks and clips... I honestly have just been riding it around close to home/short distances because my right arm is quite messed up at the moment... hence the pedals.

If you think people give you weird looks riding a fixie with no breaks... imagine no breaks and one arm.
