I have an '03 Fondriest Top Level Aluminum frame. Can anyone tell me if it has an English or Italian threaded BB.

Getting a new frame and want to know if I can re-use the BB. Sent e-mails to Fondriest with no response and the US Distributor didn't know.

Need to know if I have to get a new BB.

If ya have the frame, take it to a bike shop or measure the width of the BB shell..if 70mm, probably italiano. If 68, english. I'm betting it's Italian threaded.
