Ha..just realized I have p-much the exact frame 17.5 hanging on the wall behind the computer. I'm an idiot, well, there are 4 bikes in the room in various states
.
Chromo-bomber, hard to damage that frameworks. Heavy, reliable.
The bb's probably garbage if original, low end, my only complaint with the bike. $70.00? to replace.
Edit, will look at the bb, Shimano, p-sure. Derailler hanger is not too tuff, but steel, o.k to bend back.
(Old alu, recycle.)
