Frame prep...

[soapscum]

Hi,

I'm prepping my new Hunqapillar frame for a build and I'm wondering how necessary it is to face the bottom bracket shell. Nice to have? Must have?

Also: have to say that the photos I've seen of the green/cream Hunqapillar livery don't do it justice. It's VERY nice, and I'm a tough customer when it comes to green...

Thanks!

I find green is hard to get across in photos. The old Sam green looked terrible on the Rivendell site but was really nice in person.

Probably not necessary to face the BB if you're using a modern cartridge square taper BB like Shimano or Tange. If you're using Phil, definitely don't face it. If you're using an external bearing BB, especially a really nice one like Chris King, then you should face it.
