BMC Fourstroke 01 LTD

The BMC Fourstroke 01 LTD is a cross-country race bike that’s not afraid to do things differently from the rest. With forward-thinking design and component choices, it’s sure to please those looking for something different. This 100mm travel (front/rear) cross-country machine is ready for it all. 

An automatic dropper post is found on these Fourstroke 01 models. This means the seat can be lowered without the need for the rider's weight to push it down. When squatting before a decent is no longer necessary, you have that extra second to get a pedal in and gain a competitive advantage. Not only does it drop automatically, but this post is also integrated right into the frame, giving it an incredibly seamless and clean look. 

The geometry is where this XC bike really stands out from the crowd. A 66.5˚ head angle is pushing boundaries in the cross-country world. And the bottom bracket height has been lowered by 9mm from the previous version to improve stability on the descents. Increasingly technical courses call for more capable bikes, and BMC is rising to the challenge. The seat angle sits at 75.6˚, making for great pedaling efficiency. 

Traction is the name of the game when it comes to faster times. The updated APS Suspension System has next-level kinematics and best-in-clash suspension performance. Small bump sensitivity is improved, giving you the upper hand on rough and loose climbs. A decreasing anti-squat curve also helps with added traction. 

BMC put thought into all the details with the Fourstroke. Now two 21oz bottles can fit on the top side of the downtube. A bump stop is added to prevent the fork from smashing into the frame. And fully-guided cable routing goes through the front triangle, lower link, into the rear triangle, and to the brake caliper or derailleur. 

Who would benefit from a bike like this? The aggressive cross-country rider or racer looking for a progressive design along with the latest and greatest in technology. The BMC Fourstroke 01 LTD is ready to go go go!
