Dyna-Sys brings together the rider, the bike and the trail.

The FLY Team was voted Best XC Race Bike of the Year - Mountain Biking Magazine selected the Motobecane FLY Team over Trek, Specialized and many other brands as the best XC Race Bike of the Year in 2003.

Now for 2011, Motobecane USA has introduced the Ultimate hardtail race bike made of the Ultimate material - Titanium. The FLY Ti is even lighter and better equipped than the FLY Team which was voted Best XC Race Bike of the Year. We Guarantee*, You won't find a lighter comparably equipped, titanium XC offroad race machine at this price, new with full factory warranty. Or even at twice our Factory Direct sale price.
(*see satisfaction policy www.bikesdirect.com/money.htm)

No corners are cut, the 2011 FLY Ti NOW with FULL SHIMANO XTR shifters/derailleurs, 100mm ROCKSHOX SID Race fork + Avid Disc Brakes - specified with top-of-the-line race quality Shimano, Avid, Ritchey and Vuelta XRP components and the same great handling as the FLY Team XC Race Bike of the Year! The 2011 FLY Ti has the FSA KForce Light Carbon fiber crank and External BB System, FSA cartridge headset, sweet shifting 2011 Shimano XTR drivetrain with even lighter, precision bearing Vuelta XRP Team edition SL Disc hubs and top-of-the-line Avid Ultimate Hydraulic Disc braking system.

At less than 20 pounds*, this bike will be nothing but a blur as you smoke your competitors. Motobecane USA has dialed in a race-proven geometry into this phenomenal ride. The handling is very responsive and yet stable. Singletrack and switchbacks are all handled with ease. Slow speed and high speed, technical and flat-out hammering, you will go faster because this bike is so darn light.

This bike is truly versatile. Put slicks on this baby and give those roadies a good scare as this is as light as many road bikes out there. Or, longer travel fork and some meatier tires on it and you have got a superlight trail bike that can handle just about anything and anywhere. (No Hucking Please) These have always sold out very quickly and this next batch will too.

What does this bike compare to? Compare to the $5500 Litespeed Obed (www.litespeed.com) or $6000+ Moots or Seven cycles.

Weight: The Litespeed Obed weighs 23.5 to 24lbs. (per www.litespeed.com, 1-800-229-0198)  The FLY Ti weighs 19.8 lbs (*size small/16" no pedals/reflectors)

Drive Train/Fork: Both bikes have the same derailleurs and shifters. (Obed has much heavier fork). The FLY Ti has much higher level FSA KForce Light GXP carbon fiber crankset. The FLY Ti has the Newest 100mm Rockshox SID 100MM RLT Race Fork+Lockout. The fork alone lists for $680

Brakes: Litespeed Obed has standard XTR disc brakes, FLY Ti has the lighter, higher level Avid XO Hydraulic disc brakes.

Wheels: Litespeed Obed has heavy, cheaper ($479 List), Bontrager wheelset and weigh 1800g/pair

Why buy a 4 to 5 lbs heavier, lower spec bike for more than twice the price of the FLY Titanium?

(Price includes UPS Ground ship 48 States NO TAX Collected 48 States)
