2022 BMC URS LT gravel bike review: Ups and downs of integrated suspension - CyclingTips

Feb 2022 · Dave Rome

20 mm of integrated front suspension meets an already progressive gravel bike.

Highs
  • Balanced ride with front control/comfort now matching the rear end, progressive geometry pushes into MTB territory, easy-to-use lockout, integrated aesthetics, frame comes with included impact protection.

Lows
  • Suspension top-out, setup limitations and limited target rider weight range, servicing required, unknowns over long-term servicing prices and logistics, so-so tyre clearance, suspension changes geometry for the worse when under-biking, equipped wheels, bike weight.

BMC URS 01 review

Nov 2021 · Sam Challis

The SRAM XPLR-equipped BMC URS 01 could be the ideal bike for the right type of rider

Highs
  • Forward-thinking geometry

  • Neat MTT rear suspension unit

  • Innovative componentry

  • Nice gearing spread

Lows
  • Overall weight

  • 'ActiveRide' function of the Rockshox Reverb seatpost isn’t easy to use

  • Some riders might be better served by a mountain bike

Hands on: BMC URS One 2022 first ride review

Sep 2021 · Graham Cottingham

BMC offers the fully suspended micro-suspension experience with its new URS LT ‘Gravel Plus’ bike

Highs
  • MTT suspension does an incredible job at absorbing high-frequency vibrations

  • Huge gear range and smooth wireless shifting from SRAM’s XPLR/X01 mullet groupset

  • Downtube and fork dropout protection

  • Minimal fork design looks sleeker than the MTB style gravel suspension

Lows
  • 45mm tyre clearance falls a little short of the gravel tyre clearance status quo

  • Standard 40mm tyre spec feels small for an adventure orientated bike

  • Top out clunk from the front suspension is noticeable when unweighting the bike

  • Suspension tuning comes with additional costs

  • No fork leg luggage bosses
