I agree, and I'm leaning in that direction, especially since I already have a 92 PDG 5, which is the best riding bike I've ever been on.
This one is just a shade too big, but quite beautiful. 1973 Schwinn Touring Paramount Opaque Blue 25" | eBay
My first Paramount was a '66 P13 and was a 25". It turned out it was too big and I ended up not riding it the way it should. I've been very happy selling it and buying a 24". It made a great difference. YMMV!
