Up on the block: my 1977 Schwinn Paramount track bike, original from the handlebar tape to the factory-drilled Campy hubs to the Cinelli stem and bars to the Rigida brass chain (exceptions include tires, toe straps, and possibly the cog). I've never seen a cleaner example; this bike is truly beautiful. I think pretty much all questions can be answered by this picture, but please send any outstanding ones to chivolvo@gmail.com; I'm not on Bikeforums very much anymore.

PRICE: $2000 shipped CONUS, including professional boxing.

I can't believe this is still available? Someone needs to jump on this now before I have a momentary lapse of self control...

Would you take a trade for one 1978 Acapulco born wife? She has wonderful geometry with a beautiful seat and 700c tubulars to boot!
