Thanks to [MENTION=425004]merziac[/MENTION] I am now fully up to speed on this thread. I am an owner of a '74 P15-9 Paramount that could stand to be a little taller, and have been on the lookout for one (pending a workable top tube length), particularly in P13-9 form. My '74 was purchased in rough shape, and it's been repaired and repainted--I am no stranger to a non-original Paramount as it's been a fantastic bike.
[MENTION=208629]rcommbikes[/MENTION] the 67cm is pretty sweet--my ideal size. And it definitely screams Paramount. On some of the main tubes, it may even have "REYNOLDS BUTTED" faintly stamped into them. What is the length of the top tube? That is the critical bit, and the pictures seem to say that it is quite generous (in typical Schwinn fashion).
