When Emanuel Lowi made that statement I just had to speak up. Given the great beauty of many Paramounts, their great racing history and what a surprisingly good ride many of them are I just thank goodness they are priced as reasonably as they are. It was with great surprise that I first noted my chrome Paramount feels lighter than any Masi I own. It rides as well, too! I stuck up my nose at them before I owned my first one and was amazed at how quickly I bonded with it after I started detailing it out. I bond with very few bikes these days and yet I have to tell you that I can hardly walk by my Paramount without smiling and placing a loving hand on it. Perhaps Emanuel has never owned one...I have no idea, but I really hope he gets the enjoyment out his bikes that I get out of owning my Paramount. And I'm darned proud of it!
