Wanted: Mixte Ladies bike

Posted on
  • Evening all,

    I'm looking for a nice Mixte step through bike for the lady friend, she's a bit picky and I'm a bit poor which probably isn't a great combo however.

    70's or 80's would be ideal something like a Raleigh or Claud Butler in reasonable condition. Smallish frames are good.

    Thanks

  • Could go for a small bike with horizontal top tube too, 531 etc.

  • there was one on
    here recently

  • nice one Carson, not quite what I'm after for her but cheers all the same

  • I've got this 3 speed Mixte which is on my project list, maybe something that could be of interest?
    Stem mounted shifter, full chrome mudguards, rear rack, dynamo.

    It needs a good clean, service, new tyres and new bars & grips as the current bars are pitted and the grip rubber is hard.

    I have purchased north bars & grips in preparation, I also have a Turbo saddle.

    Give me a shout if you are interested!

    Totally forgot but I also have another one which is bigger and runs 700c wheels:

  • Peugeot 5 speed? Cracked skirtguard and a couple of scratches on the paintwork, but rides fine.

  • Thanks for all the offers, ended up getting an 80's Claud Butler Lady Dale in beautiful condition for just under £100, it's got a lowered top tube but not the twin top tubes that attach to the rear stays like a mixte has - that feature seams to really bump up the collectability/price if you want it in reynolds 531 with alloy parts, otherwise there're some bargains out there..
