BINGO!!! Went to Barry the Metal Man this morning and he's sitting there all smug with my frame beside him, sans stuck BB cup! And he only charged me £5 for the priviledge.
So slapped all my former beater bits on it and the Raleigh is ready to roll. Think I might have to swap out the Uber short 50mm stem for something a little less twitchy tho.
big fan, mean lookin but colourful, great
