Well very interesting I own a 75 Paramount Pista myself and the frame looks to be very original. I can't tell from the photos it even looks to have nervex lugs...very nice. Just maybe and this conjecture, an amateur torch hung a bracket on the stay because he wanted to have his cake and eat it too (could of been a messenger type). I just don't believe Schwinn made them that way. If they did it is very rare. The serial number is in the correct spot, but it is an odd duck. Good luck.
