Bridgestone MB-2 SS Project


EZRider

Recommended Posts

Hi everybody,

 

I have been given this Bridgestone MB-2 steel lugged bike and I am wondering if its worth doing a restore and SS conversion on it.

It has Ritchey force stem, bars and rims and a specialized crank.

 

Unfortunately the original fork has been replaced with a really cheap one. Is it possible to buy forks with this diameter steerer? Steel? Or carbon even?

 

What kind of brakes could I possibly consider using? Or am I stuck with the centre pull system?

 

Are bottom brackets available in this size?

 

I have never attempted a project of this nature before so any advise would be appreciated!
