Redefining Gravity, One Climb at a Time

The Teammachine SLR 01 isn’t just lighter – it’s engineered to rise above, with explosive stiffness and next-level responsiveness.

The new Teammachine SLR 01 redefines what a climbing bike can be.

Transfers power like a BMC race bike. Stiffness for climbing excellence. An Impec Lab recipe that perpetuates what we believe is the best race formula.

A lightweight build at every aspect of the frame: materials, shapes and even artwork has been revolutionized to reduce weight.

Refined aerodynamics.

Learning from the Teammachine R 01, the SLR 01 inherited from new tube profiles. Reduced frontal area, optimized drag: the CdA of this generation 5 is the fastest in it’s category.

BMC Ride Feel doesn’t get old. We maintain all the characteristics that make the Teammachine SLR 01 a true BMC: Compliance, Fit, and Handling.

Where Every Gram Counts.

Whether it’s switchbacks or summit finishes, the Teammachine SLR 01 delivers. A precision-optimized carbon layup, aero refinements, and minimal branding – while keeping handling, compliance, and ride feel exactly where elite riders need it.

We are able to maintain the same stiffness as the previous generation, while shaving 222 grams of weight. Yes, 222 grams, 16%, the numbers don’t lie.

The frame alone is only 700g – painted size 54.

From the first pedal stroke, you’ll know: this bike was built for altitude.

Fast Up. Fast Down.

The Teammachine SLR 01 doesn’t just fly uphill – it’s razor-sharp on the descent.

Take the proven BMC geometry numbers, keeping the magic 63mm trail number and you get the formula for fast downhills.

Together with our “pro peloton” proven geometry, the ride feel is as balanced as it is aggressive. You climb with power. You descend with confidence.

Shaped by Speed

Aerodynamics meets intelligence in the new Teammachine SLR 01.

CdA: is the coefficient of aerodynamic drag (Cd) multiplied by the frontal area (A). Firstly, we reduced the “A” with much smaller frontal areas on the headtube, fork blades, downtube, and seatpost. “Cd” (coefficient of aerodynamic drag) is improved by borrowing the shapes of the Teammachine R 01, multiple computed simulations, countless wind tunnels hours, and all the learnings from our continuous interest in aerodynamics.

Its sculpted frame, ICS cockpit, and full internal cable routing minimize drag while preserving BMC’s iconic race-ready look.

This is speed shaped by science.

Sculpted by Speed, Driven by Intelligence

Every detail is optimized – drag-reducing shapes, seamless integration, and performance-focused design meet in perfect harmony.

Innovation & Technologies

BMC Ride Feel is the one thing you will always appreciate when you need it the most.

It’s one thing to make a stiff, light and aero bike. It’s another one to make a great riding bike. This is why we never compromise on handling, compliance and fit.

Handling is guaranteed by high stiffness and the magic trail number of 63mm. Whatever the size you ride, the Teammachine SLR 01 is designed to take curves at high speed and with ultimate confidence.

Engineered vertical flex through the frame saves you energy, and helps you to produce power. Seat tube, dropped seat stays, and seatpost are designed to flex and absorb road buzz. It’s not invisible: you get up to 14mm of vertical flex when riding on some gnarly road surfaces that you will inevitably encounter on mountain roads.

Built to Win Where the Road Tilts Upward

A pure climber’s machine, born for switchbacks, summit finishes, and riders who chase elevation with ambition.

Q&A

Most commonly asked questions

The latest Teammachine SLR 01 is a much lighter package with 222g saved over the previous generation.

Stiffness numbers are similar as BMC always target Pro rider needs and this hasn't changed since 2020. Stiffness is identical between Teammachine SLR 01 Gen4, Gen5 and Teammachine R 01.

System Aerodynamics (bike+rider) has been improved a lot over the past generation. The latest version is 2.2% faster than the previous one.

If we look at bike only, the difference is 12% faster, meaning the Teammachine SLR 01 is only 4% slower than Teammachine R 01. Making it the fastest climbing bike on the market from BMC's testing.

Tire clearance has been increase from 30mm to 32mm.

Complete bike weight is indicated on BMC's website for a size 54. The Teammachine SLR 01 ONE or TWO weight 6.6kg without pedals (as displayed on the website picture). This makes it one of the lightest and most aerodynamic bikes in its class.

The claimed weight for a size 54cm Teammachine SLR 01 frameset is 1'173g. However, actual weights can vary based on size and paint scheme.

The Teammachine R is BMC's aero-focused race bike, developed with input from Formula 1 engineers. It features aerodynamic tube shapes and integration, making it suitable for flat and fast courses. The Teammachine SLR 01 models prioritize a balance between weight, stiffness, and compliance, catering to a broader range of racing scenarios.

Stiffness numbers are almost identical. We don't communicate these numbers.

The Teammachine SLR 01 is BMC's top-tier model, featuring a lighter frame, integrated cockpit, and premium carbon layup. The Teammachine SLR models, while still high-performing, have a slightly heavier frame. Both share similar geometry and ride characteristics, but the SLR 01 is much lighter.

The Teammachine is designed for racing, emphasizing stiffness and responsiveness. In contrast, the Roadmachine offers a more relaxed geometry and increased compliance, making it suitable for endurance rides and rougher terrains.

Only few grams have been saved. 345-339 = 6g. However, this was not the only improvement. Remember, we reduced the frontal area for better aerodynamics and kept a similar stiffness. So saving weight is still quite an achievement.

We don't have the number for a section of the frame. It would be a guess more than a factual claim/statement.

System Aerodynamics (bike+rider) has been improved a lot over the past generation. The Gen5 is 2.2% faster than the Gen4. If we look at bike only, the difference is 12% meaning the Teammachine SLR 01 is only 4% slower than Teammachine R 01. Making it the fastest climbing bike on the market from BMC's testing.

We don't have enough production data to make a precise claim. However, the Teammachine SLR 01 is more compliant by about 5 to 8% based on our development data.

BMC provides a sizing guide based on rider height. You can refer to the geometry table to compare stack and reach against your current bike.

Yes, the Teammachine SLR 01 is designed for both performance and comfort. Its compliance and geometry make it suitable for extended rides without compromising speed.

Yes, the latest Teammachine SLR 01 accommodates tires up to 32mm measured, allowing for increased comfort and versatility across various road conditions. Please always control the tire size by measuring it with a caliper, at pressure after having let the tire settle at pressure for some time.

While the Teammachine SLR 01 features integrated components for aerodynamic efficiency, it is designed to be user-friendly. All assembly steps, spare parts list and maintenance recommendations are available through the Teammachine SLR 01 Gen5 specific manual (available on BMC's website).

Yes, BMC carbon frames, including the Teammachine SLR 01, should be used exclusively with direct-drive trainers that require the removal of the rear wheel.

Our geometry is exactly the same from Gen 4 to Gen 5. There are some visual differences between tube shapes, tube profile, and tubes connections but nothing was done to the "angle" of the top tube.

The Teammachine R 01 top tube may look a bit more sloping as the toptube-headtube junction comes a bit higher (same geometry but different junction design).

  • Teammachine R 01
  • Teammachine SLR 01 Gen4
  • Teammachine SLR Gen5

Unfortunately, complete bikes are delivered to retailers as specified on our website. BMC does not offer a custom build program.

However, we have carefully selected components - such as stem length, handlebar width, crank length, and saddle width - to suit the vast majority of riders. While we understand that one setup cannot meet every individual need, we continuously listen to feedback from our retailers and riders to make the best possible choices.

For riders with specific fit or component requirements, we recommend starting with our frameset and cockpit options. Many demanding riders choose this route when planning a custom-built bike tailored to their preferences.

You can find the geometry data on the product detail page.
