New Old Stock Match-built 1999/2000 Schwinn Paramount.

Tim Isaac design with Curt Goodrich doing most of the work on these frames. It is 446 out of 750 Match Paramounts.

Lugged Reynolds 853 56 cm frame. Campy 9 spd Record Ergo levers, rear and front derailleurs, cassette and chain. New Centaur brakes and compact crankset, Chorus hubs with Mavic rims. Cinelli bars with Easton stem, Easton CF seat post, and Brooks B-17 Honey saddle. Estimated weight is about 20 lbs. Could shave more with a CF crankset and titanium rail saddle.

This is my interpretation of a Bobbish "go-fast" club bike. Will be used for club rides of up to 50 miles, at least until the saddle is broken in!
