I have been offered a beautiful and rare vintage steel frame from approx. mid-70ies through the internet, i.e. I cannot view it in real life.
It comes with bottom bracket, stem and seatpost - the seller (who inherited the frame) do not know when the parts were mounted.
Being a relatively new 'bike mechanic' my question is whether I can expect to be able to remove these parts, especially the bottom bracket?
(The frame seems in good shape with no rust.)
I would appreciate your comments and experience!
