    A Shimano UN53 cartridge BB set or similar should work. About $15-20 depending on where you can get it. Anything fancier is probably excessive for that bike. It is likely a 68mm wide BB shell on the frame. You may need to pull the old one to correctly measure the spindle length accurately. Unless you already have them, you will need BB tools to remove the old and install the new.

  3. thanks.i'll check it out.
