As I posted previously, I have a 1971 Paramount P-13 road racer, bought from Sam Ftizsimmons several Cirques ago, which I want to finally get sorted out.

Both wheels are incorrect. I intend to build correct wheels with Campy NR large flange hubs. What tubular rims were used on Paramount P-13 in the early 70's? My 1972 has Mavic Championnat du Monde, but I think there are probably several other rims that could be correct. SuperChampion Arc-en-Ciel perhaps? What do all you early 70's Paramount owners have?
