casting back to a previous post: I don't think this is an exact match to that paint I was calling "dusty rose" but, it's in the right ballpark, plus obviously was a stock paint job on an Ishiwata 022 "Professional" model

To my eyes the chrome looks OK. I don’t believe it to be high end tubing but it does have chromed fork ends and stays in that oh so 70s Chartreuse. If it was near me I know I would not be able to resist for $10

For the right need and build, those levers alone could be well worth the ask. ;)

I messaged the 'Old Lady' about the PDG Paramount this afternoon.

She was sweet: Someone was already driving two hours to pick it up.

If you are here: Lucky YOU! (Thanks for the temptation!)

a lesson in marketing
 

This is not!

a better pic (and a few more) would help eliminate some guesswork, but from what I can make out I'd say "Yes", that's a '70s Nishiki Pro. It may not be a 1972 but it's in that approx. era with round fork blades and chrome headlugs, the tubing was probably what later became Tange Champion #1. These had 700C tubular rims, at least the one I owned (briefly) did.

very rare frame from 1987-1988, not many of those were made

Possibly of Interest to Fuji or Peugeot Owners
 

If you're looking for a pantographed crankset in 170mm, these might be of interest. They're both currently at auction on eBay; both auctions close Monday (March 11, 2024) afternoon. As of about 5 min ago, no bids on either.

1. Sugino FORGED Double Square Taper Crank Super Maxy Fuji Pantone 170mm 52/42t

URL: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256434792993

2. Vintage StrongLight Double Square Taper Crankset Peugeot Logo 50/38t 170mm

URL: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256434846132

From the photos, they both look to be in quite good shape - but they're photos, so caveat emptor applies. Both price and S/H also seem reasonable for a decent vintage crankset.

Don't really know how rare these are, but I have the impression that the pantographed versions are not all that common.

Disclaimer: I have done business both with eBay and the vendor, but I have zero financial interest in either. Vendor seems to be a legit 501(c)3 non-profit.

I'd buy it, pay shipping and a generous handling fee. I also need it like I need a hole in the head.

Same here. :twitchy:
