Schwinn Paramount -- Installing the crank arms

Applied some grease on the bolt that holds the crank arms in place (this will make it easier to remove). 

Also applied some grease on the tapered square end to ease removal later.  (aluminum on steel so a grease layer is also helpful for dis-similar metal corrosion). 

Both crank arms installed. 

The bolt was torqued down to a pretty high level (by feel... about 30 to 40 lb-ft, I would guess). 

The inner ring has good clearance to the chainstay tube.  The bottom bracket that I bought is the right size. 

Bolt torqued down. 

The bottom bracket rotates smoothly with no play. 

Done.
