1984 Myata Mixte bike

[mixte]

Very nice bike, rides smooth. Only thing missing is the original seat. Has the original tires in good shape! Everything works mint condition with the exception of a few chips in the paint. Measures 18.5 inches from the bottom bracket to the seat post. Asking $100 plus shipping.

nice bike! I hope you can sell it. Where are you shipping from?

[mixte]

Michigan, yeah it is a real nice bike.

Can you post what the measurement is from the seat post to the stem? I'm curious if this bike would fit me or not.

[mixte]

No problem i will measure later today.

[mixte]

21 inches from the seatpost to the stem

Ooh, that's really close. I think it might still be too big, but let me do some comparison measurements.

[Biciclista]

remember, you sit more upright on these bikes so that reach is a lot less of an issue than it is on a road bike.

Enabler.

:p

[Biciclista]

isn't that what we are here for? That bike looks so much like mine that I want GLC to have one too!

[mixte]

Well I measured from the center of the seatpost to the center of the stem. I thought that's how they measure that? Sorry if I am an idiot.

mixte - that's exactly what I wanted to know, thanks!

I'm going to make some measurements of my current bikes and compare. I had a mixte before, but it was too big and I never rode it. I want to make sure this time before I commit! I'll let you know this evening... :)

Thanks, Mimi - I'll keep that in mind. My last one was upright as well, but it was still too much of a reach. (I've got short arms!)

[Biciclista]

oh i didn't know you were little! :D

[mixte]

Yeah no rush, just let me know

[GLC1968]

It should fit just fine! 21 inches matches my road bike, so with a zero set-back seat post, it should work great.

Send you a PM now. :)
