Is the ebay bike a Schwinn? Maybe its a Paramount just not a 'Schwinn' Paramount.
Right on both counts, Jim. The bearings that came in the headset from the ebay seller that sold me the frameset are 5/32" and I assumed they were correct. The 1940 Schwinn parts catalog says they should be 1/8", though. I guess it's a good thing I haven't ridden it much. 1/8" bearings are on the way.
