Motobecane knows how to design and build 29ers! Here is a great video taken by one of our customers who rode their Motobecane Team 29 Titanium mountain bike in the Leadville 100 MTB Trail race. It's the Powerline descent.
The Leadville Powerline trail is much steeper than it looks...as steep as 27% and averages 7.3% in nearly 4 miles. In comparison, the steepest sections in the Tour de France are at most only 10%. The Leadville course starts out at 10,200ft. Higher than the highest mountain pass ever summited in any Tour de France. The Leadville 100 MTB course does not descend below 9,000 ft and climbs to over 12,000 ft!
How are these Bikes being sold for this Great Price? Other similarly equipped Bikes cost over twice as much.
This is a promotional price for Bikesdirect Early-Order customers ONLY. These Awesome Bikes are selling out rapidly and may be up to $200 more for any that are left instock later. At the current rate of sales, many sizes will be gone soon and may not restock for quite some time.
Motobecane is a Top Rated Brand: We have sold thousands of Motobecane hardtails in Carbon, Titanium and AL mountain bikes. The higher level Titanium 29er PLUS and Carbon Boost models have advanced engineered, shaped tubing. This CARBON tubing is engineered specifically for each platform's purpose. Customers who own Motobecane bikes send friends and family to buy these incredibly capable mountain bikes all the time.
Here is what just a few magazines and bike review sites say:
MOUNTAIN BIKE ACTION
FLY Team 29 Ti XX Edition..."a sight to behold...Motobecane
delivers a race-ready bike with the Fly Team 29 Ti XX. ...offers more
comfort than almost all aluminum hardtail race bikes and
many carbon fiber race bikes. The (10speed) drivetrain is
inspiring. And Motobecane put the package together for a
great price."

DECLINE MAGAZINE
“The FLY Team(29) swoops around big sweeping, high speed turns like a train on rails and motors across minute trail debris with the same powerful locomotion...The FLY Team(29) seems to go faster and faster...a deal that is hard to pass up, offering a high qualty frame with a rad parts spec.”
MOUNTAIN BIKING MAGAZINE
“The FLY 9357 from Motobecane USA is the lightest production hardtail available for under three thousand bucks. The 2.7 pound frame is precision welded from high strength Kinesium aluminum that is 40% stronger than 6061 or 7005 series aluminum.”
BIKE MAGAZINE
“This bike is an absolute feather. You can have the lightest bike on the block for about the same price as most people pay for their wheels. The lightweight flyer screams up hills with no hint of bottom bracket flex. How does Motobecane do it?”
MOUNTAIN BIKE ACTION
“IS 19.9 POUNDS TOO LIGHT? How is it possible for Motobecane to sell an under-20-pound (mountain) bike for such an incredible price? One thing is certain; you'll always win in the price department with this incredible deal. The FLY Team makes you feel like a superstar from the git-go. The 19.9 pound FLY Team simply motors.”
MOUNTAIN BIKING MAGAZINE
“FLY EAGLE LTD - XC RACE BIKE OF THE YEAR! The more we do the math, the harder it was to believe the price at which the Motobecane package leaves the shop. Performance of the frame and parts spec is on the highest level.”
MOUNTAIN BIKE ACTION
“The tight controls and frame angles are so lively it's easy for the rider to find his zone. The FLY rider will have an overwhelming desire to sprint past the front row and take the lead. In or out of the saddle, the 20 pounder retains complete steering precision on ultra steep grades without a hint of bar wagging or oversteering”
MOUNTAIN BIKING MAGAZINE
“The lightest bike that we've tested in the last 2 or 3 years. The FLY 9357 takes you higher, farther and faster than your lactate threshold ever imagined - at a price that isn't too outrageous.”
MOUNTAIN BIKING MAGAZINE
“Motobecane has been producing top-notch bikes specific to your needs for decades, and they continue to produce all levels of bikes while remaining focused on the customer. This bike is so light and rigid it seems to pedal itself.”
MOUNTAIN BIKE ACTION
“Motobecane's FLY Team Titanium is made from double-butted, multi-shaped 3/2.5 titanium. The finished product is stunning. The frame does a nice job of absorbing the trail chatter, so the rider is not physically punished for the bike's performance.”
MOUNTAIN BIKING MAGAZINE
“FAST! That's what all our test riders had to say. This bike climbed like a jet airplane. The FLY is the ideal choice if you're looking an ultra-lightweight hardtail that doubles as a competitive cross country racing machine.”
Even when reviewed at list price, magazines feel the Motobecane FLY mountain bikes are incredible values.
