I have a 2010 Motobecane Immortal Spirit Duraace 7800 came with Richey Wheels. 8000 miles and runs like a dream. I am a very good bike mechanic and usually build my own wheels so no issue for me concerning service. In a 59 mm with pedals and 2 h2o cages it weighs a bit less than 18 pounds. I have compared it to a Madone 5.2 and did not ride one bit better and I preferred the Moto. The threaded bottom bracket is much better than press fit.

I did put a set of 7800 brakes on in place if the cane creek 5s but the CC were fine not really any difference with kool stop pads in place of originals . I think the Moto is a great buy and frankly I don't care about resale the plan is to ride the bike till it wears out. For some reason people just hate them and I cannot figure this out. Do you want to pay over $1500 for a name. It is a piece of carbon fiber with components to run. After about $2000 spent the returns diminish as it is all about the engine. I have not trouble keeping the bike up to speed in a century.

Buy that bike and ride snot out of it, I am not a shill because deacons are suppose to be trustworthy.
