In addition to what's pictured, I've got a front DA hub and wheel on the wall, and a crank set on the way.
I'm closing in on a 7403 rear hub, but am totally stalled on new hoods and a seat post.
What's kind of funny is that I don't even have a frame to put it all on.
So...what early 90's frame might I seek that had a Dura Ace groupset on it as standard equipment?
PS: These brakes have to be one of the sweetest components I've ever seen!

I hate to hijack this thread, but I wonder why BG did 2 reviews of the Paramount within months of each other? The bike in the earlier article looks far more like a mid-80s Para, with its solid color.

It includes a 26" version too, so that fad hadn't died a quick death just yet.
