Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

You know, when that auction is fixed, the $350 price tag might not be so bad, especially if you're in PA and can pick it up yourself (sparing the $100 shipping).

So Portland is blowing up with Schwinn Paramount track bikes right now if you haven't noticed...

https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/bik/508373352.html '76 Paramount track, $1200

https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/bik/512009526.html Early 40's Paramount track, $850, adjustable reach stem

https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/bik/513302592.html '74 Paramount, but it's hard to tell if he's talking the whole bike or frame. $600.

Unfortunately I don't aspire to own a Paramount or I'd probably buy the last one, but I'm sure there's many that do.

that's all original from the time it was bought. you got an even better deal than I and I got the same bike as you. You'll get a good profit on ebay.

well, if you have a Viner, a Colnago, or a DeRosa (or another Cannondale track or any other great steel bike) in size 57-59, great. Until then, I am not going to sell it to some whippersnapper who is going to use it as a bar bike. Original bikes don't come around often. I feel the need to preserve it
