I am no longer looking for bicycles or bicycle frames. Thank you.

Don't know where you are, but there is a nice looking one on Craigslist in Reno:

Haven't had any luck, still looking for 22" size frameset, either Crosscut or Crosspoint, will pay premium for Crosspoint.

Surprisingly there seem to be more Paramounts than "cross" variety Schwinn's. Not a single Crosspoint in nationwide Craigslist search, 1 Crosscut 20"
Did find one clean Crisscross - 22" Same frame, lower end components.
https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/...573217965.html - 22" - $250

I had a Crosscut and sold it about a year ago... I am now honestly regretting that decision.

Fwiw, the lugged Trek Multitrack frames look awfully similar. But I understand that sometimes there's a reason for going after a particular bike.

Project got put on hold, bumping this now that it's back on. Haven't had any luck finding sellers on eBay/FB willing to ship. 22" Crosspoint or Crosscut frame wanted.

The Schwinn Cross-series bikes have exceptionally long top tubes and front center. The Multitrack is great but a little too short for what I want. Just for info, thanks for offering suggestion.

My recollection is that the original Trek Multitrack geometry is nearly identical to the same year 520's. I think they upsized the tubing and that was it. If I recall correctly, the Schwinn offerings of the same years based their geometry off their mountain bikes. If my memory serves, they actually used that as a suggested selling point. It is interesting that you can have what appear to be the same frames, but the development process yielded different results.
