One of the raciest gravel bikes gets even racier while adding some practicality.
Jun 2023 · Calvin Zajac
The BMC Kaius 01 ONE definitely looks fast, and it’s light, too. So, does that mean it ticks all the right boxes for a gravel race bike?
Attention to detail
Uncompromising race bike
Lack of compliance
No power metre (given the high price)
May 2023 · Warren Rossiter
BMC’s flagship Kaius model is an ultra-light, racing, aero superbike designed for… gravel
Very light frame
Exceptionally fast in the right conditions
Great specification
Can be a handful on rough technical terrain
Feb 2023 · James Huang
It looks normal enough – until you look at the geometry chart.
Jan 2023 · Sam Challis
The new Kaius makes gravel rides feel like road rides
Fast ride feel off-road
Comfort levels
Good attention to detail
Forward-thinking cockpit design
Quirky on-road handling
