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, in 2009, the FLY Team is just as light and even better equipped.
We Guarantee*, You
won't find a lighter comparably equipped, 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 2009 FLY Team NOW with FULL SHIMANO XTR
shifters/derailleurs, 80mm ROCKSHOX SID Race
fork + Avid Juicy Carbon Disc Brakes - specified
with top-of-the-line race quality Shimano, Avid, Ritchey and Vuelta XRP
components and the
same superlight/strong
frame as the FLY Team XC Race Bike of the Year! The 2009 FLY Team
has the FSA Carbon crank and External BB System, FSA cartridge
headset, sweet shifting 2009 Shimano XTR drivetrain with even
lighter,
precision bearing Vuelta XRP Team edition Disc hubs and amazing Avid
Juicy Carbon Hydraulic Disc braking system.
At less than 20.5 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.
