    Description

    Schwinn Paramount 75th Anniversary bicycle.  In 2013, Waterford Cycles, the owner of the rights to the Paramount name, decided to build just 25 of Schwinn's legendary bicycle. Besides employing custom lugs that honor the great frame building techniques of yesteryear, Waterford also went back to some of the older iconic graphics (see the hat in the ring decal from 1938) to invoke the history of this famous marque.  (Go online to find Waterford's write-up of their decision to build a 'new' Paramount).
    Waterford Air/stainless tubing option was painted a rich pearl cream/white.  Note beautiful chrome socks.
    No expense was spared in building up the bike and because this year was also Campagnolo's 80th anniversary, I chose their 80th Anniversary Super Record group to complete the build.
    The size is: Seat Tube - 55 c-c. Top Tube - 56cm c-c.  Standover is 32". 1320mm x 100mm spread.
