OK team, let's see if we can get a consensus here. I think every full chrome Paramount I saw in-the-day had lug pin striping. Is that true? Or, when did Schwinn stop that practice? Anyone know?

I know (I think) the painted bikes stopped have pin stripes on the lugs by the late 1960s. Not talking about them...

" My 1981 Nishiki Ultimate originally came with Campag clincher rims, but when I bought it (new) I had the shop replace them with Nisi tubular rims. So they existed and would certainly be OT. "

Thanks, That being the case is there any list available of the model's from the day ? Any recommendations ? I have a slightly off topic but KOF DeRosa Team bike with Campy delta clinchers that are durable , but very hard to locate. I would like similar for the next project..
