BMC Teammachine - racing bike performance at WorldTour level

The BMC Te ammachine is the flagship of the Swiss racing bike manufacturer and has been an integral part of the WorldTour for years. Developed for professionals who want to efficiently transfer every wattage to the road, the Teammachine offers a perfect combination of lightweight construction, stiffness and aerodynamic advantages.

From the uncompromising BMC Teammachine SLR01 to the versatile BMC Teammachine ALR One and the attractively priced BMC Teammachine SLR Seven Shimano 105 - every model will get you to the finish line faster, whether you're racing or training ambitiously. If you want to find out about real BMC Teammachine experiences, you will find many positive voices in tests and ride reports.

Frame & geometry - Swiss precision in every line

The centrepiece of the BMC Teammachine SLR series is the frame. The carbon versions such as the BMC Teammachine SLR01 utilise the latest ACE+ (Accelerated Composites Evolution) technology to optimally balance weight, stiffness and aerodynamics.

Geometry highlights:

• Race-orientated riding position for maximum efficiency
• Steep seat angle for powerful pedalling
• Long reach for optimum aero position
• Optimised tube profiles for less drag

The aluminium version of the BMC Teammachine ALR adopts many of these design principles and offers a more affordable alternative without sacrificing the DNA of the Teammachine.

Riding behaviour - direct, fast, uncompromising

The Teammachine is designed for acceleration and precise handling. The low weight enables explosive acceleration, while the high frame rigidity ensures optimum power transmission. At the same time, the handling remains stable even at high speeds - a decisive advantage on descents and sprints.

Equipment & drivetrains - From Shimano 105 to Dura-Ace Di2

The model range covers the entire spectrum:

• BMC Teammachine SLR01 One / Two / Three / Four - High-end carbon with top groupsets such as Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 or Ultegra Di2
• BMC Teammachine SLR Five / SLR Seven - Carbon frame with Shimano 105 or 105 Di2
• BMC Teammachine SLR Five Test - convinces in magazines with an optimal balance of weight, stiffness and comfort
• BMC Teammachine ALR One - aluminium frame with reliable Ultegra equipment
• BMC Teammachine R 01 - aero-optimised race version
• BMC Teammachine R 01 Four - aerodynamically optimised equipment for sprints and flat stages
• BMC Teammachine SLR02 / SLR03 - proven performance with attractive prices

All models rely on hydraulic disc brakes for maximum braking control, even in wet conditions.
