Couldn't resist this one:



As bought. It's pretty grubby and grimy here.
Japan Made '89 Raleigh Vector Mixte.
It's the biggest mixte I've seen in person. The seat tube is 21-1/2" from center of cranks to the top of the seat tube.



After the first round of cleaning and adjustments. Those knobby folders have been replaced with Pro-tite Paselas. More pix later of the ride with new tires.



Model name on the chain-stay. It appears on both sides.



Somewhat lugged seat post band with some thoughtful high-lighting with some silvery finish.



Fork blade decal.



Origin decal at the bottom of the seat tube.

The lady that sold it to me included the original drop bars with it. The straight bars that are on it aren't bad at all. I think I'll go with them for a while yet. Destined to be primarily a grocery getter, and maybe a pleasure rider.
There's 3 bikes in here again, and we really don't have room for that many. I think the Schwinn MTB will be leaving us soon.

As to the ride- I like it! Probably have more on this later with some (hopefully) better pictures.
