need help with a lambert bottom bracket
 

i bought a old lambert frame and death fork, how can i replace the bottom bracket spindle with a tapered on to run modern cranks? can anyone help me with this? i found some info on sheldon browns site , but it was very vague,not enough details. any help woul be greatly appreciated!

Ironic.
Can you be more specific?

The original Lambert bicycle frames I am familiar with had a pressed in bearing and "custom spindle" with an odd taper. There was a specific set of tools required to service this BB,

We actually tapped a Lambert bicycle frame Italian(the only dimension that worked).

Finding interchangable parts may be tough.

This question might get better a response on the C&V forum.

I'm familiar with the problem. The bike shop I worked in years ago sold Viscount which is what the Lambert morphed into. What you need to do is a) replace the fork and b) take the bike to a shop with bottom bracket taps and have it tapped out to Italian thread. You can then thread in a cartridge with Italian thread rings.
