My wife's new Yves Gomez is also 26.6mm. I hadn't even looked at it. Perhaps with a mixte, a thicker walled straight-gauge seat tube is called for with the normal 28.6mm OD. I imagine the long parallelateral design many of us like so much with the Breezer and many mixtes wouldn't need as beefy a seattube. Just guessing of course.
