Chris P’s 1987ish Centurion Accordo Mixte

Posted

Previous OTSOTM inductee, Chris P, provides us today’s mixte reprieve. This is his 1987ish Centurion Accordo Mixte HTFC.

A circa 1987 Centurion Accordo mixte that I picked up at a yard sale over Memorial Day weekend for $20. Cleaned, lubricated and converted to a 6-speed, I sold it to a grateful young lady almost right away, for a nice profit.

Needed one new tire and tube, new chain, new brake pads and new front brake cable.

Tange chrome-moly tubing, Suntour and Sugino drivetrain, Dia-Compe brakes, Araya 27X1-1/4 alloy rims. A nice bike, overall.
