Ok guys and gals, a month or so ago I put up this Motobecane MX400  frame and forks asking if anyone knows much about them and whether to restore or leave survivor state...well survivor was most popular so I duly obliged and have left it as it was and have tried to use parts that are used too...im pretty happy with it too...maybe change a few things as time goes by or they come up for sale...usually when you see one of these they are using blue parts all over (as it came from the factory) but I thought I would be different and pick up on the red on the decals rather than the blue :)...let me know what you think...be brutal if you feel the need,im sure its not to everyones tastes ???.

Im sure a few of you will tell me to lose the front brake but seeing as the french national champ ran one on his MX400 when he raced it I reckon its good enough for me to leave it on ;D
