When precision handling over any terrain is required, there is no better company to trust in. From the Tour de France proven carbon road bikes put on display by Floyd Landis to the European known mountain bikes that are going to disrupt the American marketplace, I can't imagine riding anything else. Right now, my weapon of choice is the Fourstroke 01 mountain bike that I'll be trowing down on through the Xterra National Series.

BMC is also a proud sponsor of raceathlete.com, a program designed to outfit amateurs with pro calibuere equipment while documenting their lives through podcasting.
