Anyone ever rode the motobecane bikes? I see they have a titanium hardtail bike with XTR for $2200. Sounds to good to be true. I would like to hear any experience others have had with this brand.
My first moped was a Motobecane, a Mobylette - with a centrafugal clutch/gearbox - not sure it had any titanium in it...
They don't seem to have a website that is up to date?
known as MBK weren't they?
Here's the link, they look awesome, but I've never really heard of anyone riding one

The current Motobecane is not the French company that had a lot of success in the Tour De France and in cycling generally, I believe an American investor has bought the rights to the name and they are standard mass produced in Taiwan frames (not that that is a bad thing)I believe the old Motobecane now only makes moto's under the name MBK.
As for are they any good.... aint got a clue.
