2021 BMC URS Gravel Bike
BMC dropped more details on its 2021 BMC URS gravel bike this week. The Swiss company went with a slack 70˚ head angle, integrated cockpit and micro suspension concept that should be interesting to watch.
For our ground-up development of the URS, BMC focused on the demands of three riding styles: the ambitious gravel racer; the high-mileage, backroad adventure rider; and the long-haul, bikepacking cyclist. To meet this range of rider demands, BMC developed its Tuned Compliance Concept Gravel, which utilizes a gravel-dedicated carbon frame and fork layup and 10mm of Micro Travel Technology damping for optimum compliance and traction on rough terrain.
