I happened to rehab and sell a 23" super mirage and found it fit me like a glove so I looked on and off for about 3 years for a nicer 23" model and finally found the Moto_GT.
Yours is a very classy looking bike. Now that I think about it, I've felt that way about most Motobecane bikes I've seen over the years. Thanks for posting!
