BMC Alpenchallenge AC01 Alfine 11 review

Oct 2016 · Rob Spedding

The perfect choice if you’re in a hurry to get to work. Buy if you're looking for a fast commuter bike, and one without the hassle of a chain

Highs
  • Direct and sharp handling, good looks, Gates carbon belt

Lows
  • The hub is a bit heavy, minor lagging between gear shifts

BMC Alpenchallenge AC01 Sora

Oct 2014 · Matt Lamy

The BMC Alpenchallenge may be a hybrid by name, but with a Shimano Sora groupset, a racy frame shape, and internal cabling, definitely has road credentials

Highs
  • Surprisingly fast

  • Good looking

Lows
  • Not the best off-road
