Doubtful
Uh - the more I think about it, the more I realize that I won't know any of these answers unless I buy the Moto and try it out. Maybe I'll wait for another frame, I really don't want the Moto if this conversion won't work. I really like the frame, but I'm not interested in much else on the bike and I haven't bought it because I don't want to deal with all of the French "intricacies" as I'm replacing everything.
I agree, find a better candidate unless you really love the frame
