A mixte frame bicycle replaces the top tube of the traditional safety bicycle with a pair of smaller tubes running from the top of the head tube all the way back to the rear axle, connecting at the seat tube on the way. The normal seat stays and chain stays are retained. This provides the greater stand-over height of an open-frame bicycle while avoiding the stress the open-frame bicycle places on the seat tube.
