    I rode this bike today

    And it was sweet. The seat felt like it just slid itself underneath my butt instead of me sitting on it. It's light (aluminum ) and well balanced. It's definitely fun to ride.It has a more cruiser-like geometry from a true mixte, though.
    Compare and
    I am considering it.

    Anyone want to buy an FX7.6 with about 100 miles on it?

    I'm with Chicken Little- they're BOTH gorgeous!!!

    And yes, I'd like to buy your bike, but I don't think my marriage can handle another bike.

    Both bikes are gorgeous! I'd say if you can't get/find a classic unique mixte like the one below and want the style, get the Electra. Where's the thread here .... someone wanted to find a light, fast, easy to get on and off the bike, touring bike for her Mom? May be perfect for her.

    They copied my brake levers! Who pointed Electra to the "Show us your Mixte" thread

    Nice!

    Remember that aluminium rattles your brains when the surface is rough.
