Faster than a Hybrid or Comfort bike, more comfy than a Road Bike!
What is it? It's a Cafe Bike!! Picture Gallery

Cafe bikes are road bikes with flat bars and adjustable stem so you can ride with more comfort and control than a regular road bike and far greater speed than a hybrid or comfort bike.

The Motobecane Cafe Express 3 comforts you with the superior ride of a meticulously handcrafted 6061 series Advanced Aluminum frame.

Ultimately Convenient Internal 3 Speed Hub
Upgrades from external shift bikes with the easiest shifting 3 speed internal Shimano Nexus hub.
Shift at any time - Even when you are at a stop. Get rolling again and you are in the gear you want.
The ultimate in convenience.
Fast and Smooth rolling 700c wheels, comfy seat and powerful brakes round out this high quality ride.

The smooth ride and stable handling is perfect for those relaxing weekend tours of the countryside or cruising fast and comfortably in your favorite charity ride. Picture Gallery
