I remember when you started this journey. I'm happy for you on the fantastic results. It turned out great. A pretty classic!
Be sure to keep the BB spindle tapers clean and the mating crank arms. From my experience with a 600EX 1-key release model, the hex bolts can loosen. I concluded it was caused by grease on the tapers, allowing over torquing and spreading. I passed the crank to my brother, corrected the matter and he never had trouble with it. And he's a pedal masher and maintenance phobic (why bother when you have a brother who is manic about it).



Once it's all trimmed, and puffed up, it deserves an entry in the classic rides thread!
