The MBK is a fair bike. If memory serves it's an oversize aluminum frame. The ones I saw were
polished but I suppose at that price it's probably painted.
If the bike is new and it is really a DuraAce group and not just a DuraAce rear derailleur and
shifters, it's probably a pretty good deal. And the bike will handle as well as most of the aluminum
bikes out of Europe these days.

$1100 Date: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 4:13 AM
I have an opportunity to purchase a Motobecane le Champion Team with Dura- Ace for $1100. I know
that the real Motobecane went bankrupt years ago and this isn't the same company I remember.
Still, would this still be worth the money just for the Dura-Ace? The frame has have a full
lifetime warranty.
Dura-Ace equipped bikes locally (Rochester, NY) cost $1800+.
Here are more specs:
