[gravediggerjason]

hmmmm... i think it would be a nice one to cut up .. but thats just me

 

[Markm]

start cuttin!!!!!

 

[Clothespin n]

NO!
don't cut it!!!!

that will sell BIG TIME on Craigslist or E bay being it's a Nishiki.
Take the Money and buy a Raleigh Mixtie for $40.00,
and use the $100.00 you will have left over from the sale of that one
to Fund the rest of the Build.

1) it's a Mixtie
2) it's a Nishiki
3) it's Primo!

sell it!...trust me on this one.
peace,
Kev.

Yeah, really don't cut it up.
Mixtes aren't all that common, and even though I like some of the cut-ups, I'd like to see some of them preserved.

Mixte- the frame style where there are two top-tubes extending from the front of the bicycle to the back.

So what makes them more desirable? just being a wierd frame?

 

[Jetro]

mixted is a unisex bike where there are two small tubes that run from the head tube all the way down to the rear drop outs.

 

[Clothespin n]

as well a Mixtie is a Frame in which it has 3 Rear Down Tubes
that come from the Center tube to the Rear Drop outs.

That, I think, is The Main distinction of a Mixtie compared
to any other Bike that has JUST a Double Top tube,
or is designed in a Unisex Style.

Kev I walked right by a bike just like this one for $5 bucks

I know I could have cut it down at the time I saw it....but I could have flipped it for that much!.....

Kev we need to go garage hunting together so that I may learn.
