~ 1966 22" Schwinn Paramount P-13 Frameset Reynolds 531 Steel Frame & Fork ~

Description

This Frame The frame I am offering here is a very cool original paint P-13 frameset from 1966. Here's a cool original survivor from 1966, the original paint has many scratches and some of wear and patina, all of which gives it amazing character. There is one small dent on the right side of the top tube (see pics). This is the 1966 version of the P-13, meaning it was designed for center pull brakes and 27" wheels. Chrome lugs make it a p-13 vs a P-12 from that era. Frame is the 22" version (56cm) seat tube measured from the center of the crank to the top of the top tube. Top tube measures 57cm. Bike takes an English BB and Headset, rear spacing is 120mm - 27.2mm seatpost. Frame serial number F610, making this the 10th frame made in June of 66.

Backstory
I recently had the good fortune to purchase a large lot of Schwinn Paramount's from the estate of a renowned collector. This frame is one of about 30 frames and complete bikes I will be offering here for sale. The collection originally included over 80 bikes, many were very rare and early prewar Paramounts, as a matter of fact some of the very earliest known to exist. My purchase includes bikes from the early 60's to the early 90's.
