I guess the next step is to figure out what the BB shell threading is.

Bottom Brackets Cribsheet | Sheldon Brown

It´s either a Swiss or a French (modern, not that obsolete one) thread. 35 mm X 1mm right and left.

A Campagnolo 74-SS-120 barrel with a brazed in fixed cup was used. (Guess the thread must have got damaged once) A framebuilder is going to fix that for me.

EDIT: Hey wait! Thats a 74! Why? We have a 68mm Housing here. The guy that modified the rear end drop outs seems also to have messed around with the bottom bracket. Now i´m getting confused!

The forkblades are round.

By the way, i bought it in Germany.

Appreciate your help so far guys! Incredible! Thanks a lot!
