Those Motobecanes are the best deal anywhere for a quality titanium bike, I would match it up any time to the much more expensive Habanero. I was going to buy one (Century model) but starting over a year and a half ago they couldn't get my size in any of the TI bikes, and they wanted to go to disk brakes which I didn't want, they still don't have my size in the Century (Team?) or the any of the other TI road bikes! So I settled on a Lynskey which I got on a introductory sale price. Not sure why Bikes Direct isn't getting anymore TI bikes in, kind of weird, but they obviously lost my business among I'm sure quite a few others.

By the way, the Habanero, which is made in China, was more expensive then my Lynskey made in America even after all the price increases Lynskey has had on the Silver series.
