I’m looking for a narrower handlebar for my tmr. 38 or 40cm.

Has anybody found a good source for bmc’s ics aero bars (can’t find any in stock), or another alternative that has the same 25.4mm clamp diameter?

Thanks for any tips.

well the make a 40.. so there's that. Order from BMC dealer. Yeah the issue is the 25.4mm no one will make one but BMC. Maybe one of the one piece jobs from the Teammachine might fit ??? but then you are buying stem and bars.

I’ve emailed my local bmc dealers. Hopefully they can get a 40cm bar.

No luck yet on ebay or used listings. Anybody
want to trade for a 42? :-)

Still no response from Darimo.
Decided to go the aero route. Will be trying 35/40 Enve aero bars + BMC’s ics2 stem from the Team Machine. Should also save some weight and look like this.

Have any of you guys figured out how to finely adjust the saddle tilt? I'm trying to get my saddle level but I can only pick between -1.7 and +0.7 degrees.

Good news. I just got a reply from Alba at Darimo. They said the TMR01 aero post is now in production. I kept emailing them for years. :-)

I’m a bit surprised at this stage. Expecting a follow up quote shortly.

This will go well with my heavy 80mm Dicut wheels and more aero front end recently installed. Very excited to get rid of this OE seat post and its heavy duty machine bolt.

EDIT: No seatposts coming after all. Darimo just emailed saying they made a mistake and thought my bike was a Teammachine. I had a feeling this was too good to be true. Was odd for them to start making a post so late into the current TMR model.

^ my 2024 Teammachine R is in route to me.. so at this point Darimo is too late...upgrading TM01R at this point is not happening.

I hear ya. Thought you might be interested since you and I are probably the ones that harassed them the most.
I’ve also been toying with getting a light aero frameset like the sl8 (very curious to hear how you like the R), but for now this development let’s me have a bit more fun weaponizing the TMR01.
