The BMC Impec featured in Men's Fitness Magazine
Outside Buyer's Guide features the BMC Granfondo GF02
"BEST FOR: Gravel-grinders and other epic rides. THE TEST: Though it's built from less coveted aluminum and was one of the least expensive bikes we tried, testers couldn't keep their hands off this candy apple red beauty. With flex points built into the seat-stays, fork, and seatpost to add bump-eating compliance, the GF02 felt nearly as cushy as a carbon frame. And while we appreciated the burly wheels with pillowy 28-millimeter tires, their heft was noticeable-a change to a lighter set would drop two pounds. THE VERDICT: "You can't buy more comfort or performance for the money."

Triathlete Magazine's Buyer's Guide features the BMC TM02 Ultegra
"While some bikes have grown more complex in the hopes of saving a few seconds, the BMC TM02 is a refined take on the most functional and proven style of tri bike. With frame geometry keyed for realistic aero fits and a Profile T2+ aerobar capable of adapting to many different reach dimensions, the TM02 is shaped for real tri performance. Functional component upgrades such as the Shimano Ultegra crank and front brake make this build far more reliable and effective than the many tri bikes with downgraded kits."

Road Magazine features the BMC Impec Bicycle
"Brands are now thinking outside of the box and finding exciting ways to reinvent the bike. And one brand, BMC, has taken it a step further in its pursuit for the ultimate race frame. For them it required a complete change in the way a frame was made. The best race frames are constructed from carbon fiber, but BMC felt that the current manufacturing methods limited the material's potential because it couldn't be 100% controlled with zero error. To achieve their objective of zero error, it would require the use of computer-controlled robots and a completely new method of production. It wasn't easy, but after four years of development, they created the Impec."
