SOLD: 1975 Schwinn Paramount C7561 silver
I have a few bikes I'm looking to move on from the collection so that I can focus on some custom 70s/80s American-made steel on my wish list.
This Paramount is nearly flawless. It's just a beautiful example of the mid-70s top-of-the-line Schwinn. Serial number C7561
I get the following measurements center-to-center: 22.5/57cm seat tube, 22/56cm top tube
$OLD

Is it original paint ????
If so, it's the best condition Paramount I have ever seen for that time period !!!!
Glad you're not closer

The spokes are almost tangential at the flanges... so I looked more closely...they are laced 4x, which I don't think I've seen in the wild.
Beautiful bike, GLWS!

Yup- Schwinn stuck with it on high end Chicago bikes. My 68 Super Sport and 77 Superior are high flange 4x. The 71 Suburban and 72 Continental are high flange 3x.
