Picked up this rather nice UE19 mixte a few years ago when a certain lady said she had always waned a mixte frame...



Today... and still a work in progress but close to being done.

Have converted the wheels to 700c, changed a UG 6 speed into an HG 7 speed, swapped in a vintage Ideale model 92 and a vintage French rack, and made the bike a much more comfortable upright as the porteur bars were far too low and forward for her.

Will run the bike as 1 by 7 with that XT deraileur and shifter so it can be indexed and am looking for the right single crank to finish things off.

Will lengthen my housings and install some new levers tomorrow...
