I too found this same Ross in a "free" pile along with its mixte sister model. Both had a nice SR stem, Ross bars, Tracer cranks, Shimano RS components. I stripped both bikes, found the men's Ross had a twisted frame, so I cleaned up and lubed all its components and put them in the cleaned parts cabinets. I turned the mixte into a single-speed utilizing the same Tracer cranks and 42t chain ring. Got some single-speed chain ring nuts and bolts, a 16t freewheel. Had to cut the axle down and use a spacing washer so it'd remain quick-release and so the chain line would line up.Loving this mixte. These Tracer cranks are *sexy*.
