Based on this pic, I think it's a 25" bike, or 24 at the smallest (weird angle): https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/iVcAAO...1K/s-l1600.jpg

Odd, fork tubes look bent back in the lower photo but not in the upper one.

Not insisting that it is, only that it's odd to appear in one photo and not the other.

Looks a bit neglected, but should probably clean up well. For the shorter rider -- looks to be 52-53cm

I think you are right about it being 25". Well at least that saves me money! I would only fit the 23". 72.5 degree angles and the parts would make for a great all around bike. The extra weight over a Tempo or Super Sport probably comes from the Hi-Ten fork rather than a Cro-moly fork.
The seller says it is a 1982 but you can see part of the Columbus Tenax sticker, which would make it mid to late 80s. The color and the components in the photos match the 1986 Prelude seen here:
Schwinn catalogs, 1981 - 1990 (292 of 456)

Custom Steel Frame
I'm not sure what to make of this one. If it is custom, then why no decals or mention of who made the frame?
Does the fork look slightly bent or just the camera angle?

<image 1 of 3>
make / manufacturer: Waterford
model name / number: 1200
size / dimensions: 55cm
QR Code Link to This Post
This is a 1994 vintage (Shortly after Waterford came into existence - after the Schwinn buyout).
This post-Paramount bike was one of a group built for the Wisconsin Velo Club.
I am the original owner, and was fitted personally by Richard Schwinn.
The components are all Campagnolo Chorus, with the exception of a Record crank, and an American Classic Seatpost
Frame size is 55cm
Two sets of wheels are included. The Campy wheels, as well as a set of Mavic clinchers on Campy 36 hole rear and Hugi 28 hole radial front.
All in great condition. The tires on the bike now have < 50 miles. Continental Gran Prix 23mm.
No pedals
Saddle - I can include choice of two saddles. I would like to keep the Flite pictured on the bike now.
