I just obtained a Lambert frame. It's handmade in England froun roughly 30 years a go. For those of you who don't know about these guys, here is the skinny. The bottom bracket is not threaded. It is pressed into the shell some how. The spindle on the bottom bracket is not tapered. As well as the mounting hole on the cranks.

My problem is, the previous owner of this bike rode with loose cranks. Thus making the cranks a bit of a liability.

Does anyone have a way to get around this, or posibly have some non tapered cranks to sell?
