STBO Mixte bag

After a massive clean up last Christmas, the only step through frame in my inventory is this Mixte. So putting the question out there, are Mixte builds allowed?

Just must remain a step threw

When I picked up this one, it was somewhat of a breach cruiser Mixte, wearing 26x1.75 tyres. Thought it would make a cool build with some fat 26s, as most Mixte's I've come across are for skinny 27s.

Some pics trialling a 26x2.25?
Fitted up, these are bigger than my maxxis DTH 2.3s, and equivalent to my DMR 2.4s.

I asked back in June about a mixte frame and got no as an answer, but:

"These rules are a work in progress and not official (6/17/24)"

This is good news as I have a good mixte frame for another entry now.

A lot of mixte frames have strange geometry that has a short seat tube or other features that bring the top bar higher than we were thinking

This one definitely hits or meets the under halfway up
