I hope that those are Shimano hubs(?).
I always seem to find crazy-tight bearings and pitted bearing cones in the Maillard and KK Taiwan hubs from this era, so hoping that the hubs are Shimano like the driveatrain bits.
It's one reason why I so often balk at buying Schwinns from this period.
The bike is a beauty and it looks like the inner chainring was swapped for lower gearing.
