Already available in black, red & white. LVR cycles has them online in europe and people are receiving them.
I’ve ordered mine through BMC UK but the delivery date keeps getting pushed back

Nope sorry. And for all the mechanics reading this, routing is MUCH easier with the ICS aero
how so?
One big entrance for hoses instead of two and free rooting in the cockpit

Hi guys, think about switching one piece BMC cockpit to ics2 but not sure about handlebar. What would you recommend? Bike is Teammachine SLR01 three. Handlebar width in 38/39cm….. Now have a 100/420 and it's too wide me.
Also planing to sell it.

7,2 kg or pure joy (and speed)
I just ordered the exact same bike today (keeping the stock stem it comes with for now though). Got a good deal on it and I am excited already. How do you like the bike so far?

Bike is overall super super good. You can’t go wrong riding a SLR. Geo is conservative, almost missionary though

Conservative geo is exactly what I need. I bought a 2019 SLR used and the steerer was cut. 18cm drop! Too much! I sat on a 2021 BMC Teammachine SLR01 with a 61cm frame for about 15 minutes. Fit was better. The one I ordered obviously has 50mm wheels and disc brakes. That is something I have to get used to. Hopefully the bike is still light enough to climb as is. Don't want to buy climbing wheels right away. Every year we are cycling through the alps. I just needed a bike with better brakes and a high head tube that is still light enough for hours of climbing. At the same time, we have a lot of flats and rollers in my area. To make a long story short: I need an alround bike that makes me enjoy being in the saddle for many hours!

Just saw the newly released Teammachine models for 2024 on the BMC website. The AG2R team bike is more than twice as much as what I paid for the 2023 Teammachine SLR01 TWO last week. As much as I like the light blue there is now way in hell I would have paid 16k! The off-white frame looks great too. But the longer I look at your pics I know I made the right choice. It looks amazing and has everything I wanted. Shimano > Campa. DT Swiss wheels. Dura Ace 12-speed. Hopefully it's arriving next week!! I want to take it for a spin now!!!

I paid for it in advance but to this point the bike shop has not sent me the bike. Verz disappointing...
