Group--
Just to add a bit to this discussion, I have a 1974 Paramount with the usua l chrome Nervex Pro's. However, it was sent back to the factory to have a cracked bottom bracket replaced -- with one branded "Cinelli". (I am told that this was a fairly common occurance, and was covered completely under t heir lifetime warranty.) It was repainted after this repair, and the then current (1977-78 decal set was applied -- with the word "Paramount" placed on the top tube. The interesting thing of the whole story is that it still has the lovely lug lining that is out just a bit from the chrome/lugs. This lining is present on all of the lugs, including the BB. This would indica te to me that there was still someone around there who could do this type o f lining in the 1977ish period? I just wish they had put the proper decals on it... :-(
