A new project I need your advice on:

Bought it as shown, so it doesn't come with the OG bb.. I checked online and four solutions came up:
- Have a frame builder tap italian threads onto it
- Chamfer/bore the bb shell to fit a Mavic bb (not much bb choice)
- Fit a repair bb (depending on diameter)
- Source 6003 bearings and axle from Phil Wood
I'm more inclined on doing the first option (the last one being the most expensive, as much as the frame). Any of you have feedback on doing this? Anybody did it already?

Thanks.

Yes, I saw it in his klein thread but £170 is too steep for me and considerably more than what I paid for the frameset..
