The Trifecta - Today It's a Mixte!

Ummm I may be mistaken but I don't think that's a mixte? I think that's just a 'women's' bike.

I thought a mixte was when the top tube goes all the way from the head to the rear drops...

I've always been confused about the difference between step-through and mixte, obviously dual top tubes are a mixte frame, but apparently there is another kind of mixte too, One like this except it has an extra set of seat stays in the back.

I believe this one in particular is just a regular step-through or ladies' frame. ,

although, my idea of step-through is the 70's old school style where you can actually step through it! I wish they still made the super low curvy step through frames, nowadays they're always some highly placed cheesy imitation. Structurally unsound my butt!
