Semper Fi Sloar...Navy here. Question for you, I've heard mixed reports about those Fizik bags staying attached, but I do have the mounting point and would like to take advantage of it...Does it pop off? |
Haven't used one before, I bought the saddle off paceline forum and the seller threw it in. And this bike hasn't been ridden yet.

Just saw this review on RBR :thumb:
Review: Motobecane Fantom Cross Team Ti Review: Motobecane Fantom Cross Team Ti Great parts spec make bike a solid value for racing or touring at just $2000, this bike a solid value for new CX racers or cross town commuters. Most associate Motobecane with antiquated French steel or budget road bikes available via BikesDirect.com. But there is more to the story. The Fantom Cross line has been popular among beginner cyclocross races for quite a few years, and for good reason. The titanium model equipped with full Ultegra 6800 11-speed weighs just 19.5 pounds out of the box (49cm sans pedals and reflectors) and is an excellent choice for someone looking for a capable cyclocross race bike without breaking the bank. It would also make a great commuter bike or touring setup... read more |

I read an interesting story about that frame, not sure if it was true however it was on a site that was comparing Lynskey models but I couldn't find it today; supposedly Lynskey somehow made an error at some point in the formation of the tubes and the tube twisted and so was born an idea. The twist has proven to be of no advantage to frame stiffness or durability over a standard shaped tube, but it sure look very unique and cool!!

Nice!

That report on RBR isn't the first time this bike or the road bike version got high marks; but don't say this stuff too loud, some of the LBS owners and workers don't want people to know about such a quality product at the third of the cost of any titanium bike they sell, and that's why all the Bikes Direct bashing that goes on.
One of the reasons they can keep the prices so low is they operate on your dime, not a banks. They charge your card when you order so you may be loaning them the purchase price for a month or two. A really good deal if you know your size and can wait for a bit . |
