Hi Steve, all. I seem to recall seeing a Cinelli mixte w/ a SA 3 speed gear at Robert's Cycle here in Chicago 20 or 30 yrs. ago. I think the hub date was early '50s. It might have been a normal women's frame though. I don't know that Cinelli ever used Nervex lugs, though, and the fork crown doesn't look Cinelli to me. A lovely frame indeed!

Anybody have any thoughts as to might have made this interesting mixte currently listed on eBay?

Optimistically priced in my opinion...but darn it she is kinda cool!
