Very nice build. Reminds me of an early 80's Schwinn Le Tour mixte that I 
built a few years back for a neighbor, great riding bike, similar pseudo 
mixte tubing.

2015-11-09 Thread 'Mark in Beacon' via RBW Owners Bunch




Here's my Le Tour mixte, parked at the farmers market yesterday. I would 
not call it a pseudo mixte. As long as it has the extra seat stays, it 
would still qualify as "dual" in terms of tubing. There have been a number 
of threads in various bike forums regarding what constitutes a "proper" 
mixte. I would say there are single top tube and twin, or parallel top tube 
mixtes, but they all must have the dual seat stay configuration.  In any 
case, I like to think of the first translation, which is generally mixed, 
as in co-ed, or unisex.

I would classify the Betty/Yyves, Wilbury, Cheviot, as perfectly non-pseudo 
mixtes. The Clementine, of course, is definitively not a mixte.

BTW, for 2 years Schwinn sold the Le Tour in a townie configuration, the Le 
Tour Tourist (I think it was '81 and '82) Great bikes. I had one for a bit, 
just changed the 27" steel wheels to alloy. Regretted selling, which is why 
I eventually tracked down a Le Tour frame and built it up in similar 
fashion. Here is my old Tourist, complete with Bluemel fenders:
