BMC Roadmachine 02 Three

Aug 2019 · Paul Norman

We’ve tested the newly launched update of BMC’s endurance bike

Highs
  • Good power transfer not bought at the expense of ride comfort

  • Clearance for extra-wide tyres

  • Extra endurance features like mounts for a top tube box and an optional rear mudguard

  • Although shifting performance is good, Shimano 105 is a low spec groupset for the Roadmachine’s price

Review: BMC Roadmachine combines clean lines, stiffness, & curve-carving handling

Jul 2019

BMC brought out a new Roadmachine for the 2020 model year, with updates all around. Set as their all-around performance or "endurance" road bike, it is less aggressive than the Teammachine, and targeted at a more general audience - but with all the performance you could ask for.

Jun 2018 · Manuel Buck

The BMC Roadmachine 01 has had its very own fan base for a very long time. In our group test in Issue #005 it stood up against a very fierce competition and bagged the coveted test victory.

BMC Roadmachine 01 Two review: The endurance bike that thinks it’s a racer - CyclingTips

May 2018 · James Huang

Endurance road bikes have traditionally paired their softer ride qualities, slightly fatter tires, and mellower handling with more upright positioning, presumably to better suit the less-sporting aspirations of the people expected to buy them. However, what if you want all of those former performance qualities, but still want the bike to fit like a race […]
