So I found something out thats kinda interesting about mixte frames. maybe it's just the two I had but the tubes that support the head tube crush and bend pretty easy compaired to any other bike. I ran a test with two department store bikes that where in no way fixable or will ever be rideable and the forks brake before the steb through none mixte frame where is the mixte frame is destroyed and forks. has anyone els noticed this? I guess them two smal tubes aint ment for impact lol

Why I basicly brought this up because say if your fav bike is a mixte and you crash. it's a write off and and there goes fav bike.

There is one upside though. it bents easy but it also bends back easy like nothing ever hapened lol. depending on how hard you hit anyway.

Also I aint knocking mixtes I do like them. I just had to repair a frame on a mint condition one today
