Hi — an out-of-their-depth roadie looking for some help/advice with a retro MTB project.
I've picked up an old Bridgestone CB2 frameset which I'd like to build up as a fun commuter (with a sturdy rack to carry a dog).
I have an old Deore 10speed shifter, mech & cassette. Ideally I want to run the bike 1x. I also have a 40t 110BDC narrow-wide chain ring in my parts bin which I hope I can use.
Need to sort a BB and chainset — this is where I'm not sure what will work. Ideally want something silver to match the other parts.
Anyone done something similar and have any advice? If so, much appreciated.

I haven't got plans to race TTs on it really. Essentially it was an impulse (+ beers) eBay purchase. Finally got it shipped to Sweden before the winter and have slowly been building it up.
I expect it'll just make an absurd cafe bike.

Super nice but I'm going to hold out for the aero post (seems the right thing to do given it's for a retro TT build).

If it were 27.0 this would be absolutely perfect. Sadly that extra .2mm really matters.

Stem sorted thanks to @WimVDD. Cheers!
Thanks! The BB shell is a 68mm wide. Will check out Spa.
