New BMC SLR01 on the floor...


Well it has finally land at Cyclic Bikes.
The new SLR01 Team Machine from BMC. And what glorious machine it is.
Xavier is the proud owner of our fist complete built 57 cm that came in at 6.6kg out of the box.
We have a 55 cm in carbon and white on the floor now and more sizes to follow.
Some of the things that make this new bike something special are, besides the ridiculous low weight, the sensational finish, Sram Red group with BB30, the ultra stiff front fork and without doubt the most elegant seat post design ever.
I can see plenty of sub 6 kg bikes being built around this frameset for sure.
The price of $8950 is a steel for what you will receive from this bike. It is most definitely not just another carbon frame with a bunch of top line components added to achieve the title of flagship. As with any pedigree the heart of this bike is the frame and the technology applied at all points.
We also have alternative packages available for those with a taste for Campagnolo or Shimano.
