It's almost impossible that that bike had a BB that was neither Italian nor English.
I have measured the BB Shell, so ~34 mm is the inner diameter of the BB Shell (still didn't buy the BB cups)
Also the right side of the bottom bracket shell is left threaded, does is not indicate an English shell even if the width is 70mm ?
Thank you !
