Schwinn Paramount 25” chrome frame
This is a 1972 Paramount P13 frame, 25” from center to top. The frame has no dents or imperfections and the chrome is beautiful, even under the bottom bracket. Oddly, the fork has some mild pitting along the leading edges. Headset, bottom bracket, head badge, and seat post bolt are all included. $475 plus shipping, your preferred shipper.

If anybody else has one of these hanging around, it looks like there are buyers.

Don’t you hate it when you list something for sale and it just lingers, on and on…

I PM’d 10 minutes after it was posted, was surprised that it lasted that long! Unexpected n+1 but couldn’t let one in my size pass.

I hesitated for just a few minutes to think about it, and by the time I posted it was too late. Let this be a lesson to you all - they call them impulse purchases for a reason!

Lucky
I think I’m lucky to sell to someone who is excited about getting this Paramount AND the ad got Van (Merziac) interested in my 26” chrome Paramount whenever I decide to sell it. 😀
Packed and ready to go.
