This is a nice example of a mid 1980s Viking Mixte frame. Viking are a bicycle brand with an illustrious history dating back to before the Second World War. They produced loads high quality road bikes across many decades and took that knowledge on when they designed cheaper bikes and frames aimed not at the racing cyclist, but at the leisure market. This mixte frame is of good quality and with the indestructible Sachs Huret Eco Rear Mech and a stem mounted shifter its and easy bike to get along with. The brakes are working well and the wheels are true and spin smoothly. The paintwork is generally very good considering its age, but there are a couple of touch ups and some spots of rust on the forks, that could do with a little attention. With all of this considered, if you are in the market for a nice 1980s mixte this will be perfect, whether it’s getting you to work, or getting you to the pub.
