Unconditionally Fast

Races don’t happen in a wind tunnel. That’s why we designed the all-new BMC Speedmachine to deliver speed and predictability where you need it most – the real world. Innovation and athlete feedback are at the heart of everything we do at BMC which is why we knew iteration wasn’t going to cut it – we needed revolution. By focusing on the rider, bike, and environment as a single system, we’ve made the fastest bike we’ve ever tested – in all conditions.

No stone left unturned

Speedmachine needed to be aerodynamic, light, and maintain the legendary stiffness the Timemachine was known for. Easier said than done, thankfully, the engineering wizards in the Impec Lab along with the Red Bull team have more than a few tricks up their lab coat sleeves.

SharkFin

Controlling airflow is key when designing a bike optimized for aero efficiency which is why every tube shape as well as the wider fork stance, contributes to lowering drag in all yaw angles. From the revolutionary SharkFin front-fork spoilers inspired by Formula 1 to leading-edge designed tube shapes that clean up air around the frame, the Speedmachine’s aerodynamic philosophy is a perfect harmony of speed and stability.

Stability when it matters most

Triathlon bikes are usually a compromise. You get blistering straight-line speed at the expense of ride stability and comfort. Our engineers in the Impec Lab got tired of those types of concessions. Thanks to a revolutionary new steering geometry, the BMC Speedmachine provides confidence and predictability previously unheard of in its class. By optimizing the weight distribution while in the extensions, you can maintain your aero position longer, go faster, and arrive fresher to the transition area.

Born from racing

When you have some of the world’s fastest cyclists riding your bikes, you listen when they start talking. Athlete feedback is one of our most vital innovation tools and the Speedmachine was developed closely with our professional triathletes and World Tour riders. Considering the wide range of races the riders complete across varying terrain, the feedback was simple: confidence and predictability are paramount. Riders want to know, when everything is on the line, they have a bike that will do exactly what they ask of it.

"The biggest noticeable difference from the Timemachine is how stable the Speedmachine is at speed, up climbs and in cross winds.”
