New SSX Streetfire




Very similar to the new SL01 Roadracer is the SSX Streetfire. The new model that arrived yesterday in stunning white with green trim is sure to be a hit with those looking for a new bike with an entry level price tag with all of the design features of it's much more expensive siblings.
At first glance the frame is almost identical to the SL01 but a second look reveals the standard seat clamp design, external cable routing and the lack of CNT carbon rear wishbone.

Component specs include a full Shimano 105 drivetrain, at last a complete groupo. Matched with RS10 wheels wearing Conti Ultra Sport tyres. And once again there is the Scor Bar, Post and Stem. All up such a well put together package.

2009 SL01 Roadracer on the floor




We have now received our first few of the new 2009 model BMC bikes.
Starting with the all new Roadracer. The new bike is a complete rework of the older SL01 which is instantly recognized by the new trademark integrated skeleton concept seat cluster and streampost 73.5 seatpost system. With the downtube using up the full width of the bottom bracket shell and traditional T-section toptube using triple butted 7005 series Easton tubing, stiffness is no doubt going to be a high point of this new frame. The addition of the CNT whishbone seatstays and carbon streampost will smooth the ride well also.

Equipped with a full Ultegra drivetrain and using standard 53-39t chainrings and fitted with Fulcrum 7 wheels. Finished off nicely with BMC's Scor branded Bar stem and saddle. The bar is particularly comfortable and is very similar to an Easton EA70.

This along with all 2009 models will be available to test at our ride day.

BMC 2009 model ride day.


With the first shipment of new BMC bikes only days away I am planning a small ride day for those who would like to test ride some of the new road models.
A tentative date of Sunday the 23rd of November in the close proximity of Kew boulevard is on the cards. I hope to have every model from the new Streetfire up to Pro Machine available.
Nothing like Oscar night, just small scale social introduction to the new range.
Ride preference will be given to those who choose to book a ride in advance.
BYO pedals and ride gear.
Contact me at the shop to express your interest.

BMC SLX01 review on Youtube

Here is a short review I found on Youtube from Competitive cyclist in the US. Nice easy to understand critique on the new SLX01.

If you you like the sound of what you hear then don't hesitate to book a test ride on our demonstrator. We also have a Pro Machine so you can compare the 2 back to back.

I have just had a call from the Australian distributor of Cube Bikes and he tells me to expect to se some of the glorious titanium Cube Litening HPT's arriving in the not too distant future. Built with Ultegra SL and Fulcrum 7 wheels this bike will offer a great introduction to a titanium frame for any rider.
