Large, no make that extra large, mixte desired.
Complete or nearly complete is preferred, frameset with bits considered.
Original paint, 3/5/10spd, with no upgrades valued.
Cheap appreciated.
May just have to buy one the largest from somafab.com
Driving soon from Seattle to Nashville, local pickup preferred. -
Northern route = Coeur 'd Alene, Montana, S Dakota, thru Omaha/Lincoln NE, KC, StL, Louisville, Nashville.
Returning thru Denver around Labor Day.
Sorry no CA on this trip.

Riv mixte (tubing ?) at more than 2X Soma (Tange Prestige) is a buzz kill, lugs aren't that precious to me for a city bike, tho cool.

(edit: that sounds a little snarky - plus, I misread = the bike Does have original paint. Fair price in a CA market.)
The AD is exceptional as well -
I have a tall Nitto stem Technomic(sp?), given the short head tube - Will it fit the headset? yes, I think. And if a taller seat post is required - ???
