Hey all, I found this bike at my local recycling depot for $10, I stripped it and has the frame repainted.
I’m keeping the wheels/tires and drop bars. I’m looking to turn it into a single speed free wheel.
Does know off hand what crank arm bearings (bottom bracket I think it’s called) would fit on this bike?
Thanks in advance.

You’ll need a square taper, sealed unit. If you plan on reusing the old crank just measure the width of the old one and use that, but if you want to single speed it you’ll probably go to one chain ring you might want to adjust the bottom bracket width to account for different chain lines. I would probably try it out with the old bb, check the chain line and update from there.
BTW great colour but I would have removed the headset and fork before spraying it!
