Bottom Bracket Revelations

I showed up to FreeCylces on Sunday thinking it was ladies night. That doesn't start for another week, but luckily Bob was there and said i could just come be a lady in the shop. So I stayed for 3 hrs and took apart the bottom bracket on the Raleigh. In my last post i had decided to donate the Raleigh and keep some of the parts. After having Bob look at it and comment on what a beautiful bike it was and that the rear tire that had been giving me trouble is completely fixable, and after Oscar said that all I needed to do was lube up the bearings and overhaul it, it would be good as new...I decided that i would keep the Raleigh.
So what if it's a little big, I already had gotten used to it, I just need to fix up a better braking configuration on the handlebars and lower the seat.
So. That is the project, now.
