About this product
This is a vintage 1985 Peugeot Mixte Touring Road Bike, a 50cm small frame with butted steel and a step-thru design. It features 27-inch wheels, 14 speeds with stem shifters, and caliper center-pull brakes. The bike has a red finish, clincher tires, and a drop bar handlebar. Designed for unisex adults, this French-made bicycle includes an adjustable seat and bottle cage, offering a classic touring experience with no suspension.
Our take
This 1985 Peugeot Mixte is a charming vintage find, perfect for someone looking for a classic road or touring bike with a bit of history. The step-thru frame is a practical design, and the butted steel construction provides that smooth, forgiving ride quality associated with older steel frames. The 14 speeds, controlled by stem shifters, offer a good range for varied terrain, though stem shifters do take some getting used to if you're accustomed to modern indexed shifting. The 27-inch wheels and clincher tires are pretty standard for the era. Keep in mind it's a 40 lb bike with no suspension, so it's a traditional ride experience. The red finish is eye-catching.
