GLHF with the rebuild! It's a really, really nice bike and the paint color is - in my opinion - the best, with the root beer color 3speedslow has coming in a close 2nd.






That's beautiful. No way mine will ever match the paint and decals on there. Or chrome. Or.... I'm going to envision my frame having gone through "Too much hard living".

Two things, that maybe you could help with:
1) What spindle length is the bottom bracket? And, is the crankset a 46.5 chainline? I'm not sure what length I need for a 48/36/26 triple to clear the chainstays. They are pretty well crimped back to make clearance for the crankset.

2) Do you have an identification for paint that matches well with the existing green?

Thanks!
