Schwinn Paramount
Hey guys, I have a Schwinn Paramount Road bike and I am trying to figure out the year and possible worth. I have located a P1 stamping on the bottom and it was made out of Chicago. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If you can get the serial number on the non drive side dropout that will indicate year and month of manufacturing.
