Thank you.

I just went through quite a waste of time trying to source an Italian threaded BB for my Miele.
Finally found one and now this!

I will probably buy a cheap BB, simply so I can ride it and see what I think of how the bike handles.

Might also try the trade thread and see if someone has a spare set of french cups. I may luck out.

If I do keep this bike, I'll be adding a set of water bottle bosses and it gets a repaint and new stickers. Maybe I'll have ye locale frame builder add some brass into the threads then retap it then to 1.37, before the paint goes on.
