I recently bought out a local shop of quite a bit of NOS cycling goodies and in with the lot were two New Old Stock Schwinn Paramounts which I'm offering to the list for sale. For further information, please write offlist.
According to Richard Schwinn, first frame is a later 1990s Paramount, fully lugged, frame size is 56cm CC with a 57cm top tube, taking a 27.2mm seatpost with Paramount dropouts. Rear Spacing is 130mm, with an English bottom bracket. As said the frame is NOS, in a stunning dark metalic navy blue with white downtube panel with Schwinn script. Jpgs will be made available on the Wool Jersey Gallery later tonight. There are a few minor shop wear marks on the frame. I'm asking for $350 or B/O.
The second Paramount according to the shop owner and Richard Scwinn is a mid 80s, has Campagnolo dropouts, frame size 52cm CC with a 54cm top tube with 126cm rear spacing taking a 27.2cm seatpost. Frame material is Columbus SLX. Frame colour is a cream white, with chrome rear stay on the drive side with Schwinn lettering in silver. This is a very handsome lugged frame. Takes brakes with the internal allen nut. I'm asking for $450 or B/O.
