Yes, depending on the year there were several different models.

Just as an example 1992: The 20, 40, and 50 shared the same luged frame but with different components. The 30 was basically a 'leftover' frame from 1991. The 70 and 90 shared the geomerty with the 50... but used different tubing and were silver brazed instead of brass brazed.

What year and bike are you looking at?

 

Thanks for the info Shayne. I didn't have any particular bike. I'm just looking for something middle to high end, frame and fork. I have all kind of parts. Was Waterford building any of the mountain Paramounts?

 

Yes, Waterford built some of them. Usually they are in some crazy custom paint and are just badged as Paramount or Schwinn Paramount.
There has been one listed off and on on eBay for what seems like years now.

 

I know the one you're thinking about. He wants insane money for it. Actually, he stripped it and is parting it out now. There's another Waterford 1400 that someone is trying to get $1,400 for. That's more than new if I remember.

 

IIRC the Buell designed under the downtube pull shock FS Paramounts were Waterfords.

 

Yes they were.

 

Still looking but from what I can see Shayne is correct. It doesn't seem like there are too many Waterford built Paramounts.

Paramounts in Waterford 1980-1994

 

Here are the Waterford pages from my '93 Paramount Catalog. IIRC, Waterford Paramount had a separate catalog in '91 &/or '92. I can remember a page with a bunch of frame tube sections with really cool custom paint samples on them. That Waterford catalog had detailed frame info and ordering instructions.

 

Sgltrak that is fabulous. Thank you for posting it. It seems like everybody on that auction site calls their Paramount a Waterford made. I have 2 nice Waterford Road bikes and would like to get either a Waterford 2400 or a Waterford Paramount.

 

Waterford Paramount.

A really nice one sold for $100 on eBay about 2 weeks ago.

 

Also don't forget to think about a 1400. I have both a 1400 and a 2400. Effectively the same bike except the 1400 is 753 and the 2400 is 853. I tend to like the feel and ride quality of the 1400 better myself.

CS2, not sure what size you are needing but also check out the PM I sent you a second ago. I am always looking for one of the lugged early 90s paramounts and perhaps if we are needing different sizes we can be each other's eyes and ears for them.
