For sale: 1972 Schwinn Paramount road bike

     Today I have a bike that needs a good home. For sale is a 1972 Schwinn Paramount road bike (P-13). Serial number is J72207, which translates to September 1972, 207th bike produced that month. 72' or 73' was also the last year that full chrome plating was an option. The current state is how the bike came to us. We have made no real effort to clean it up. There is light corrosion in a few areas. This bike WILL clean up beautifully with a little TLC! This is a rare opportunity to own a classic American race bike built at the beginning of the 70's bike boom.
     The details are as follows. 50cm CTC seat tube. 55cm CTC top tube. 30" stand over height. Campagnolo Nuovo Record  front and rear derailleurs. Rear is stamped "patent 72". Campagnolo NR cranks stamped 170 strada, pre date code. Chain rings are 52-42 combo. Campagnolo NR bottom bracket. Low flange Campagnolo NR hubs laced to yellow label Fiamme tubular rims, 36 hole drilling. Wheels are round and true. Early generation Shimano Dura-Ace brake calipers and levers, hoods are falling apart and need to be replaced. Campagnolo bar end shifters with blue Campy covers. Campagnolo Nuovo Record head set. 3TTT record stem 105mm extension. 40cm wide unknown bars. 27.2 Campagnolo Nuovo Record seat post. Mexican made Unicanitor saddle, usually seen on Windsor bikes, a bit of a rarity. Campagnolo Nuovo Record pedals with toe strap loop are where the corrosion is the worst, but should still clean up quite nicely. Hill Cycle decal on seat tube. Ocean City, NJ bike shop decal under seat cluster. Original Paramount decals are gone, but are available from Waterford cycles.

sold- Legnano Stamped Campagnolo hubs wheels

a nice pair of Campagnolo Record Hubs stamped Legnano for their bikes. Nice original green label Fiamme tubular rims. These would be perfect for a Legnano restoration from the late 1950s-early 1960s. wheels are straight and bearings feel excellent, but of course could use an overhaul with new grease. Regina 5 speed freewheel. tires would need to be replaced.

SOLD

Some people may scoff at this destruction

We have tons of tubular tire(glue-on tire) wheels, jokingly I would say we have a 'wheely' lot of them. Most of the are mediocre rims, basic Mavic or Fiamme or Super Champion, and have not much resale value as a complete wheel, the hubs are worth more than what we could sell the wheel for. With space at a premium in this over packed place, I have decided to 'compress' some of the piles and the tubular wheels were the first to get the ol' heave-ho. So expect some hubs and hubsets for sale in the near future. and if you were looking for any tubular rims, let me know. . .we have them.
