My Team Schwinn Wheaties reproduction done!
Sourced this 88 Waterford Paramount about a year ago to do this and today it’s complete! Painted by D and D Cycles in San Lorenzo, California and assembly by Tour Of Nevada City bike shop in Nevada City, California. Obviously I took some liberties as it has brifters (Shimano 8x2 7400 groupset) and larger handlebars but I wanted (for me) a more comfortable cockpit so made some changes.
Another change from original is use of clinchers rather than glue ons but I’ve lost any desire to use tubulars anymore.
Vintage/updated I suppose🤣
