The BD complete bike seems to be nicely equipped, too much so to have not used any of the parts if you did get a complete bike. It looks great, well minus the tape but still nice.
Thanks for the compliments. See my reply above for the explanation of how a few weeks changed my outlook for the Motobecane Turino Team. It is, in fact, an extremely good bike and as is evidenced in my posts, I really wanted to keep it and build it up again.
