I am the proud owner of not one, but two Raleigh Record Aces, which have grease ports on the bb, and two for the headset. The Harden hubs which have been discussed here on occasion have grease fittings as well. If I could get my greedy hands on a set of the right pedals for either RRA, they've got grease ports, too......

But I do know enough not to grease a SA hub.

Actually grease ports were pretty common until the 60s. For instance, it's tough to find an old English frame without a bottom bracket port. Phil Brown
