BMC owner Andy Rihs dies at For us it was a natural match because this is also how Swiss people are, caring about the details and usually not satisfied with the first solution.
This relationship was a crucial element in the development of how a race bike should ride. Evans helped BMC understand that comfort was just as important to performance as stiffness and weight when it came to a three-week Grand Tour. The first iteration of the aero road bike was quick and light, but Christ admits it rode harshly. The latest version takes compliance far more seriously and is all the better for it. This will always be what guides us, but we are all riders and so are our customers.
While aero race bikes remain individual to each brand, the same cannot be said for lightweight race bikes. BMC was among the first to adopt the blueprint of the modern race bike in the Teammachine, and Christ is not surprised that in this area bikes are becoming more similar. Nothing massive will change unless the UCI changes its rules. My experience in the industry tells me we have the best recipe. Bigger tyres can tame a race bike somewhat, providing more comfort and traction and potentially making it accessible to a wider range of riders.
Yet BMC has just released a new Roadmachine, an endurance bike that might be seen to fill the same space in the market as a wide-tyred Teammachine.
Christ still sees clear water between the designs. We are a team that, through title sponsor Dimension Data, are focused on innovation thanks to their ground-breaking technology and BMC joining us is a natural fit. The rise of Team Dimension for Qhubeka has been meteoric and this new partnership will ensure that trajectory is continued into the future.
We encourage riders and fans to use the hashtag WeRideForAndy in memory and solidarity for what Andy has given to the world of cycling and celebrate the remaining season. BMC Switzerland is a premium, Swiss, bike brand. Image 2 of 4.
