1972 Original Chrome Paramount - $900 Reply to: melored@alltel.net Date: 2005-06-10, 11:15PM CDT

I am selling this bike for my brother. I don't know any more than what he told me. It would be best if you are interested that you come take a look at it. Just e-mail me to schedule time. I can scan pictures to you. Completely original Paramount with the full chrome plated frame. He believes it is 1972. We are located near Geneva, OH off route 90 45 east of Cleveland, OH. Thanks.

I wrote to her asking for pictures, details and willingness to ship. She responded:

let me know if these pictures come through at all. My brother took them and for some reason they are big but at least you can get a close up view...my brother is about 6 ft tall if that will tell you anything(this is his bike) He said he thought it was 25-26 inches. THe bike is next door at my mom's. I have no idea about measuring... Also, I didn't plan on shipping this since I wouldn't know how to pack something this large nor could I carry it to have it shipped. Sorry. Melody Schafer

It is a very pretty chrome Paramount. It is the touring model with the Campy triple. I just wish it was a 21" racing model.
