So here's my Motobecane frame, I believe it is a Mirage(feel free to correct me) and after lusting after neo retro roadbikes for the past few months, I thought I'd give it a go.
and here it is in its former guise as my first fixed bike.
I'm going to build it up as a mile munching road machine to replace my rather boring Giant SCR1 aka hunk of alu crap.
So my thoughts were as follows:
-New groupset, possible Shimano 105 or Sram Apex (along these lines)
-New wheels, Shimano otp most likely
-New all black finishing kit
I'll document any progress here.
