Bikes: '76 Schwinn Paramout (Liberty) and an '89 Paramount (ol' Blue)

As others have stated before, if you know the right size, these bikes look like an excellent buy! I have owned two Fuji's, and they both have performed great. Now, I usually ride a vintage Paramount, but for the last couple weeks, it has been sidelined due to a bad rear wheel. So I took the trusty Roubaix down from the wall, and have been enjoying it all over again!! The old downtube shifters are still kind of a pain after being used to STI sifters, but the Roubaix still rocks!!
Fuji quit making bikes in Japan in about 1991, and for several years thereafter, they suffered with poor quality, but they have worked very hard at improving their product. I know I would not hesitate to buy a new one if the opportunity or need arose.
