SuperRoad - Dominate the Road: The Motobecane Super Mirage SLX Disc Brake Road Bike is built for fast commutes, fitness rides, rough roads, and weekend rides.
A lightweight aluminum frame, precision bladed fork, aero-style wheelset, Shimano Claris 24-speed STI drivetrain, and FSA triple crankset deliver road-bike speed with wide-range gearing for hills.
Fast 700c tires roll efficiently on pavement, with clearance for tires up to 700x40c* for rougher roads, gravel, or chipseal. Front and rear disc brakes add confident stopping power in changing weather and mixed conditions.
ON SALE For Under $700, COMPARE TO: Giant, Trek, or Specialized road bikes at $995 to $1200+. The closest Giant comparison is about $900 and does not include disc brakes.
SuperRoad value: The Motobecane Super Mirage SLX is an aluminum disc brake road bike built for fitness riding, commuting, endurance road rides and rougher pavement.
It combines a light/strong 6061 aluminum endurance frame, bladed steel fork, Shimano Claris 24-speed STI shifting, wide-range triple crank gearing, fast aero-style wheels and mechanical disc brakes.
Stock 700x32c tires give a smoother ride than narrow road tires, and the frame/fork are listed to fit most tires up to 700x40c. Fitment of non-stock tires is not guaranteed due to tire maker variance.
