Beauty and a great price. I'd jump on it if my first PDG Paramount hadn't been so squirrely. GLWS.

Especially when you're properly dressed for the event! Unlike the comment above I find mine rock solid and fast on the road but not twitchy. I normally think of twitchy as more a function of stem length and bar width.

I too was surprised to read 'squirrely' in relation to this bike. Mine made it to the top of the list in ride quality.

Catnap,
In a perverted sort of way, I am glad that many of the frames you are listing are not my size, the asking prices are great .....53-52's are what I normally ride, if they had been smaller, I would have already sent some PM's.
Keep posting these larger sizes..And yes, I already have an International.
Best, Ben
