Highlights and information
BMC URS AMP: Unrestricted Gravel, Electrified
Wheel Size: 700c | Front Travel: 20mm (MTT Fork) | Rear Travel: 10mm (MTT Seatstays) | Drive Unit: TQ-HPR50 (50Nm) | Battery Size: 360Wh
The BMC URS AMP is an electric gravel bike built to expand your riding range and unlock terrain that once felt just out of reach. Based on the adventure-ready URS platform, the AMP version integrates the compact and ultra-quiet TQ-HPR50 drive unit directly into the carbon frame for smooth, natural pedal assistance. Designed for gravel exploration, bikepacking, and mixed-terrain riding, the URS AMP blends suspension-enhanced comfort with seamless electric support. For riders searching for a carbon electric gravel bike or an adventure-focused electric gravel bike, the URS AMP delivers power without sacrificing ride feel.
The BMC URS AMP stands out by combining hidden electric assistance with Micro Travel Technology suspension. The TQ-HPR50 system provides up to 50Nm of torque in a lightweight, fully integrated design that preserves the handling of a traditional gravel bike. Paired with a 20mm MTT suspension fork and 10mm rear stay compliance, the URS AMP smooths rough terrain while maintaining traction and control.
The BMC URS AMP electric gravel bike also emphasizes real-world adventure capability. Cargo mounts on the fork, top tube, and downtube allow riders to carry essential gear, while the integrated system keeps cables cleanly routed through BMC’s ICS (Integrated Cockpit System) for a streamlined design.
WHY THE BMC URS AMP STANDS OUT
The BMC URS AMP was developed to take gravel exploration further. By integrating the TQ-HPR50 drive system into the proven URS platform, BMC created an electric gravel bike that feels natural under power while maintaining stability on loose terrain.
The motor system is compact and quiet, delivering assistance that complements your pedaling rather than overpowering it. This allows riders to maintain momentum on steep gravel climbs, cover greater distances, and ride longer with less fatigue.
Suspension is a defining feature of the URS AMP. BMC’s Micro Travel Technology adds 20mm of front suspension and 10mm of rear compliance, improving traction and control on rough gravel roads and technical surfaces. Combined with Gravel+ geometry and generous tire clearance, the URS AMP is built for off-grid exploration and demanding terrain.
WHO SHOULD RIDE THE URS AMP?
The BMC URS AMP is designed for riders who want to expand their gravel horizons with the added benefit of electric assistance. Gravel adventurers tackling steep climbs, long backcountry routes, or multi-day rides will benefit from the smooth support of the TQ-HPR50 system.
This model is ideal for riders searching for a lightweight electric gravel bike, a carbon electric gravel bike, or a gravel bike with motor support for extended exploration. It is especially well suited for those who want to maintain pace on mixed terrain or carry additional gear without sacrificing performance. Whether exploring remote gravel roads or pushing deeper into the backcountry, the URS AMP delivers amplified adventure.
WHAT CONTENDER BICYCLES LIKES ABOUT THE URS AMP
- Smooth and natural electric assist: The TQ-HPR50 drive unit delivers quiet, responsive power that feels balanced and intuitive on gravel terrain.
- Suspension-enhanced control: The MTT fork and rear stays improve traction and comfort, helping riders stay confident on rough and technical surfaces.

FRAME MATERIAL
The URS AMP is built around a lightweight carbon URS frameset engineered to balance durability, compliance, and performance. The TQ-HPR50 drive unit and 360Wh battery are fully integrated into the frame, preserving a clean silhouette and balanced handling. Gravel+ geometry provides stability on loose terrain, while internal cable routing through BMC’s ICS (Integrated Cockpit System) keeps the design streamlined and protected from the elements. Multiple cargo mounts on the frame and fork enhance the bike’s versatility for bikepacking and long-distance gravel adventures.
MOTOR AND BATTERY
The URS AMP pairs the TQ-HPR50 drive unit with a fully integrated 360Wh battery to extend gravel rides with smooth and natural assistance.
The TQ-HPR50 drive unit delivers up to 50Nm of torque in a compact and lightweight package. Its quiet operation and refined engagement preserve the natural ride feel of a gravel bike while providing meaningful support on steep climbs and long efforts. Fully integrated into the carbon frame, the motor maintains balanced weight distribution and clean aesthetics.
The 360Wh integrated battery is concealed within the downtube and works seamlessly with the motor to support extended gravel adventures. Designed to power long mixed-terrain rides, the battery system enhances range while maintaining the streamlined look and performance of the URS platform.
SUSPENSION SYSTEM
The URS AMP features BMC’s Micro Travel Technology (MTT) to improve comfort and control on demanding gravel terrain. The MTT suspension fork provides 20mm of travel tuned for gravel expeditions, while the MTT rear stays offer 10mm of compliance through an XCell damper system. Together, these elements improve traction and stability without compromising pedaling efficiency.
GEOMETRY AND FIT
The URS AMP uses BMC’s Gravel+ geometry, adapted for electric integration and long-distance exploration.
- Stable Gravel+ geometry: A longer reach improves stability and confidence on loose and technical gravel terrain.
- Confidence under power: Geometry and suspension work together to maintain control when climbing or descending with electric assistance.
- Comfort for extended adventures: A balanced riding position supports long-distance gravel exploration with reduced fatigue.
NOT EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR?
If the URS AMP isn’t the right fit, consider these alternatives:
- BMC URS: A traditional gravel bike built for adventure without electric assistance, offering stability and cargo capability for long off-road rides.
- BMC Roadmachine AMP: An endurance-focused electric road bike designed for extended pavement riding and long climbs with smooth pedal assist.
- Santa Cruz Skitch: A lightweight electric gravel and road crossover bike built for riders seeking extended range and natural-feeling assistance.
