Super-comfortable, high-performing gravel bike
Stunning looks
Super-smooth ride
Great handling
Stiff saddle
Alloy bar is under-spec for the status

The SRAM XPLR-equipped BMC URS 01 could be the ideal bike for the right type of rider
Forward-thinking geometry
Neat MTT rear suspension unit
Innovative componentry
Nice gearing spread
Overall weight
'ActiveRide' function of the Rockshox Reverb seatpost isn’t easy to use
Some riders might be better served by a mountain bike

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

Front suspension reduces vibration energy by a claimed 46 percent, averaged across the spectrum of frequencies encountered in gravel riding.

Absolutely coherent build
Excellent long-distance performance on moderate terrain
Excellent efficiency at speed
Confidence instilling on easy off-road terrain
Imbalanced comfort
Limited off-road performance

It wasn’t long ago that we thought of gravel as a fringe discipline of road cycling, a discipline where niche brands like Salsa Cycles had a near monopoly. Now you’ll be hard pressed to find a single global bike brand that doesn’t have a bike dedicated to gravel. BMC only recently dipped its toes into […]
Progressive geometry, softtail system, lovely clean cable integration, frame protection and attention to the small details.
Limited size options, 1x drivetrains only, makes you question the tipping point for where a gravel bike is best.
