It was CW, just a very rough CW. Clamping cup into vice and slowly moving whole frame helped ease things along, with liberal squirts of PB.
What are the chances of finding a "pearl" touchup paint?

"Now with cats and free range bearings!"

After a few tweaks by the LBS, the gravel bike is now a functioning 1x, so I've turned the focus over to the 80's Peugeot. We ordered some parts and while waiting for those they suggested I clean up the bottom bracket and headset. Hahahaha…
BB fixed cup is being stubborn. Unscrewing it (CW) and after a bit it started getting tighter. Found reference saying Italian & French BBs unscrew CCW, but this sure seems CW. Maybe some PB blaster?
Fork came off super easy, too easy maybe with the bearings flying everywhere. Top bearings were caged and bottom are free as a bird now.

Trying the 'bike follow' mode of the DJI Neo 2 sport drone - went to dogpatch / bayshore area to experiment - riding the vintage celeste green Bianchi Nuovo Racing circa 1981 -with a nod to Squaw Valley & Tinker Rovira up on Sandy Way, who sold the bike to me way back then.

A red JAP motorbike at high speed in the concrete oval.
The photos have been taken on the Track-Racer-Meeting 2025 at the bicycle racetrack Bielefeld with a Google Pixel 7 Pro in "Action-Photo" mode.

Weiß hier noch jemand, wie der Schaltzug für eine Fichtel & Sachs Torpedo 3-Gang-Nabe an der Kettenstrebe (?) fixiert wird. Da müsste es eine Rohrschelle mit Ø 18 mm und Zuganschlag gegeben haben. Ich finde aber nur Rohrschellen mit Zuganschlag mit Ø 28 mm. Die Schelle würde ans Rahmenrohr passen. Aber dann läge ja der Schaltzug fast einen halben Meter lang frei der Witterung ausgesetzt. Weiß hier jemand Genaueres? #fedibikes #fahrrad #nabenschaltung #vintagebike
