Finally admitted defeat; I am time poor.  I put my beater into the bike shop to get the bottom bracket fixed.  An hour later I got a call pointing out that the chain, rear cassette, brakes and all the cables could all do with replacing and would they like them to do this for me? – nope.  As this bike is in the bike shop I cycled in my wife’s mountain bike again – if I was worried about my low cadence this machine will fix it – the gears are (still) seized so I had to pedal like a lunatic to go forward at any speed.
