The non-racing models had braze on stops for the rear brake cable, the racing used Campagnolo clamps. I think the geometries were described in the literature.

They were also sold as framesets: up to some point in the later 70s you could order almost anything you wanted.

I believe the curved seat tube was also a Paramount. What was the number for that?

Also, my 70s track came without chrome headlugs. Apparently you could save 50 bucks by not ordering them.
