Well I'm happy to live with the Grand Prix for now. I see it as paying dues before "earning" something better. I did however notice, as I was piecing things together that this has an upgraded squared end BB spindle installed. I assume the outer cups are original, but what does this mean as far as crank arm setup? Will I need to go to cotterless cranks and if so, what sort of measurements do I need to take to ensure proper fit?
Here's a pic for quick reference...
Other option is I could switch back to cottered crank BB since I have one from another frame that is also raleigh of similar vintage.
