+===== 1982 All-Terrain Mountain Bike =====
+Very low volume limited release.  This lugged ATB, made by Panasonic of Japan, would later become the TIG welded High Sierra built in Taiwan.  Bullmoose bars, Shimano 600 brakes, Mountech GTL (1982-83.)  It continued to sell in low volumes through 1984.((Production numbers are estimated to be: 1982: 18, 1983: 293, 1984: 3751, as per: [[https://www.schwinnbikeforum.com/index.php?topic=38692.30|schwinnbikeforum]]))

+===== 1983 Paramountain =====
+Prototype of later Sierra.  Shimano M700 derailleurs, bullmoose bars, brazed frame made in Waterford, WI, sloping crown socket fork, welded bullmoose bars, Takagi Tourney XT crankset (1970s-80s).  A red one of these was shown at the 1982 Long Beach bike show.  Not in any catalogs.  Never offered for sale??
+\\
+If this has original components then this is the earliest example of XT M700 showing up on a bicycle outside of print.  The derailleur is interesting for having the "Shimano" logo inset on the rear of the body.  Date codes would be interesting.  Thus this was most likely sold in 1983.
