Jaguar bikes.
Around 4 years ago I had a Jaguar bike that was made in West Germany. It had a weird bottom bracket, Simplex shifting, and Altenburgur plastic brake levers. It looked exactly like the one in this picture. Does anyone else have a similar bike?

I remember those. They had plate style seat and chainstay bridges. The bottom bracket looked like it employed one on the conversion spindles to allow a frame intended for a one piece crank to be outfitted with a three piece, cottered crankset.

I had this Sprinter bike for a short time that had that bottom bracket.

shell on blue Sprinter machine appears perfectly compatible with conventional three-piece assembly
chainset is a Thompson type cottered as seen here -
unused BSC threads are likely present in the shell

Bikes are okay, I guess.

This one was at our local co-op for a long while, and I've encountered others over the years.

The spoke protector looks like this.
The only spoke protector that I like the look of.
