I put old BB cups on the bike before the respray but the powder coat place removed them after the shot blasting and protected the threads with paper.
Here's the bike now. Built up with Alfine, jtek bar end shifter, Blunts, 2" Schwalbe Marathons, Spa cycle saddle, Hope stem in red, cheap chainset, Hope bash ring, 1/8" chain, Luxy bars with Cow tape
