I'm riding the bike stock for the time being because it was a gift from my parents and I don't feel comfortable tearing it down [yet]. I do have plans for a project bike over the summer, though, based on this one's geometry... On second thought, maybe a set of deep v's, some different bars and some clipless pedals might make it better.
Update: the front wheel got bent when I flipped over the other night, and the manufacturer won't honor the warranty, so I ordered a replacement. The bruise was courtesy of the flip-over
Further update: For those who aren't aware, the manufacturer of the Motobecane is the source of a lot of bike frames. Look closely... the Moto is really a generic Schwinn Maddison/Fuji Track.
