I don't wanna take out the BB, but the boss says I should. It's Tange, working beyond perfectly, but has never been serviced. In 35 years. Boss says I should upgrade to a sealed unit as well, but I don't think that's necessary.

I’m having a hard time taking mine out. It may have to be an upgrade down the road. Just going to tape it up and get to painting. Good luck with yours!

Tange is good but we'll pay 5 bucks for a dam fine Shimano had we not had that kind of supply I'd say keep what you have but clean it
 
Spent five hours cleaning up the frame. Threw everything at it, blades, goo gone, simple green, wd 40 and synthetic steel wool, dawn, and scrubbing. Lots of scrubbing

Knocking 30 years of shelf grime off a brand new wheelset was fun

Now just need to polish and I can start throwing things together. Matti's hands are tired, but don't worry, he's got a secret weapon
