When shopping at the Bikeworks warehouse sale wild, wild, seriously wild things can happpen...
On to the Paramount, I'm thinking Stronglight cranks. I know I have a good English threaded Stronglight bb. I found the spindle first in the box o' poo, the bb I first pulled is not the one I was thinking of. It is a Stronglight and I'm happy to have it. I've looked through so many parts for the Gitane I'm glad that I had this available. The spindle is 125 for a mid '80s triple. The bb looks ok, not clean, no rust. I clean of course, drive looks good clean track, I clean the the NDS nice that's good. Wait, ah dang! The NDS is cracked. I got to try the drive and those threads are bunged. Yoga breathes a plenty, lol, I briefly look again for the good set. Heck, I give up, I know where Campy thin cups are. Bob's the uncle.
That's enough wrench today, I've got 12 miles to to put on the Mondia tonight.
