Assuming it fits you, get the bike and lose the stem shifters. By the way, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Schwinn DID offer TwinStiks as an option on the Paramount, and apparently some people took them up on it! Campag. downtube levers show up all the time on eBay at very reasonable prices. SunTour barcons are a bit harder to find, and Campag. barcons are rarer still.
