Bottom Bracket for Waterford
I have a 1995 Waterford, and I'm planning to upgrade with a completely new groupset -- Ultegra R8000 11 speed, including bottom bracket and crankset. I've replaced all the other components on this or other bikes in the past but never worked on the bottom bracket -- anything I should know to be sure that this will be compatible with a 1995 steel frame, besides the English threading on the bottom bracket? Or other tips I should be aware of before I order the groupset? Thanks, John

It's standard English 68mm wide 1.37" x 24tpi. Nothing special at all about building, they're great bikes.
