  1. Got to take out the cups from American-style BB. Know what proper tool I
    should use (something like Park headset cup remover but bigger) beside a
    mallet and a handlebar? TIA.

    Back when I was working in a Schwinn shop, we used a large screwdriver
    that had its tip ground off to form a 1/2" wide square punch. All you
    really need is something to hammer on the back side of the cup. Working
    from the inside, give the cup a couple whacks on one side, then the
    other. Even good, tight cups will pop out after a couple good hits.
