No threads in your bottom bracket eh? Hmmm.
The only reasonable option I saw with the unthreaded shell was to go with a unthreaded BB. They are available for around $25 and up. I was going to convert the Villager into a basic SS. Not really worth that added investment (along with all the other costs), so I aborted the project at that point.
