I'm a man, but I'll ride my Mixte with pride anywhere; I just think they are the coolest looking frames, mostly because they are just so different... Here is a recent picture of my bike when I rode to, and around the National Cemetery in Grant County Indiana. Not the best picture of the bike,(85 Fuji Sagres) but you get the idea what it looks like. I think it's on the top of page 16 in the old show us your Mixte thread, and about a hundred other places on this site.

I would love to see some more of the old Cross Frame design bikes become more popular again. I find it sad that the Mixte didn't catch on with men more, and be offered in more sizes, as it should have been in my humble opinion.
