Thanks, Front hub is a bit gritty but spins forever and will need some attention.Not touched the rear yet.
The BB could be sorted two ways.
Oil port is an option on the BB.
Not going to remove the chainset as it sounds a nightmare.I am working on releasing the seat post bolt to see whether the seat post moves, it's a great fit for me anyway in its current position.
If I can extract the seat post, engine oil can then be poured down the seat tube (tip from Gillott expert) to lubricate the BB.
Saying that it rides very smoothly.

Great bike! Are you planning on opening the hubs/BB? One of the questions is also how to prevent rusting after all that elbow grease. Obv oily rag on the rims is not a possibility.
