Any chance of a pic of the threads on the GT frame?

 

[Charlieboy28]

yep, got to get the boy out the bath then will take some pics

 

[Charlieboy28]

threads, not the easiest thing to take a picture of in this light,

 

[Charlieboy28]

pics do make it look worse than it is

as pointed out by elpedro, and for little more than a conventional threaded BB

thursday bump, loads left kinda thing

Cheers for the pic... Do you recon the threads are unusable at all? I'm looking for something for a pub runaround so it doesn't need to be top notch but I'd rather not buy another BB..

cups screw in and out just fine, and oldschool did not make any mention of the bottom bracket threads being dodgy( make of it what you will), once the BB is in i cant see there being a problem, drive side threads are fine, though again i havent ridden the bike, as a hack you could always be double sure by using locktite , i dont think anyone gonna spend the money taking this frame to be rethreaded, and worse case scenario is having to use a threadless bottom bracket,
if you want it, we can call it £20 posted, which leaves change for a new bottom bracket if it sheers, cant see that happening though, its non drive side and there are threads there, just not great ones
