Yes, I recommend this product.

Pros: Good value, Good quality, Comfortable, Lightweight, Looks great

I though I would give a very brief review of the SL01 2010 it may be benificial to anyone wanting to buy later versions of the same model.

First of all I really didnt want to go down the Shimano route again so primarily was looking for a decent frame at a decent price with a SRAM groupset. I have no idea why it is so hard to find bikes without Shimano or Campagnolo groupsets, but eventually found one. The build from Evans was excellent throughout and there wasn't much that needed adjusting other than the seat and handlebars.

Now the ride - wow. If you read the reviews of the BMCs the thing that gets the most praise is the Bottom Bracket stiffness. When you've ridden it you understand why - the BB area has pretty much zero flex, and as a result all the power from your legs goes straight onto the road. The bike just makes you want to push it as hard as you can.

The SRAM groupset I can't fault and I really do put it above Shimano for how it feels, the only downside is that the drive train is a bit noisy, the noise I would say is more of a buzzing sound and it is a bit strange at first but after a few minutes it seems to add to the feel of the bike somehow and isn't at a problem.

I paid £1400 for the BMC SL01 and for what I got for the money, I think I've stolen it.

As soon as i saw it i loved it. My father bought a BMC and after riding his, i had to buy one. The frame is gorgeous and it beats just having a normal rounded tube as per most bikes.
I bought the 2010 model when the price dropped which makes it even better considering the 2011 is over a grand more.
The bike rides smooth, very quick and very quiet, even though it is not a full carbon frame the bike is light enough.
I personally prefer the Sram double-tap system over the Shimano's for its simplicity and you only need to use the one lever on each hand, but thats my preference.
Only negative i can give it is the fact that not all rear lights can be fitted on to the bike due to the rather large seatpost. However the larger Cateye rear lights has the bracket that fits, so its not that big a problem.
Overall i love it!

BMC ROAD RACER - SUPERB BIKE FOR THE MONEY!!!

PostedAugust 24, 2010

Yes, I recommend this product.

Pros: Good value, Good quality, Comfortable, Lightweight, Looks great

Cons: saddle

Bought this from Evans in Glasgow. Very pleased with the bike, its very quick and has a really solid bottom bracket. Feels great on the corners and on the downhill stuff its awesome. It looks the part to. BMC, I reckon are by far the most eyecatching range on the market, combine good looks with great components, its a winning formula.......looking forward to pedal for Scotland Sportive ride in September.....

Great solid ride with looks you don't find on any other road bike. Corners like its on rails and climbs like a mountain goat.. if only i could do it justice. One slight annoyance.. the internal cables rattle on rough roads which i'm sure can be sorted.
