All the power, less of the weight…

Unbeatable deals on BMC road bikes – Save up to 44%

 

From World Tour racing, weekend criteriums or the weekend chaingang session. Whenever top speed is required BMC leave no stones unturned to ensure every watt is transformed into pure speed, whatever your riding focus may be.

To ensure their road bike range is aligned with the demands of each and every rider they have two models that offer a slightly different focus in what they offer.

 

BMC Teammachine SLR

For the racer there is the Teammachine SLR which sets the benchmark for what a modern road bike is capable of. With a race-winning geometry, it has performance that translates from the big stage to your next big ride. Pedigree doesn’t come any better. Or faster.

With a full carbon frame and fork, optimised around stiffness, weight, compliance and aerodynamics paired with carefully selected components you can truely have race-winning performance on every ride you undertake when aboard one. This performance orientated platform does have a slight compromise in that a race inspired geometry can be tiring to the recreational rider who may not have the experience of riding a bike with dedicated pin sharp handling especially over a long distance.

 

BMC Roadmachine

That is where the Roadmachine comes into play. If out right performance isn’t as much of a consideration as comfort and versatility the Roadmachine is the perfect choice, especially for riders who aren’t willing to be confined to one surface.

The Roadmachine also brings big tire capabilities to its proven endurance platform to make every ride better. Every early morning rollout more enjoyable. Every effort more bearable. Every broken road smoother. On this go-anywhere road bike, performance-driven details and functional features combine to make sure that your every need is met.

 

BMC… All you need for speed and savings

Now with up to 44% off RRP at Wheelbase, BMC is all you need for speed and savings, whatever your riding focus may be. Check out the new models we have on offer, in stock and ready to dispatch…

Agile and quick on the climbs, stable and composed on even the nastiest descents. With its intuitive handling and the power and range of the Bosch 750Wh system, nothing is out of reach.
