Buddy,
you have to be patient, from what I know BMC, is the bike of the Team Phonack, hasn't seen any review on this bike, is a great looking bike, specially the paint scheme. I have not seen any BMC out here in Toronto, not yet anywayz...

BMC is a young company, all swiss made, and they don't have very many dealers in the USA yet. i've never ridden one, and even here in land of the bling bling bike, nyc, i've only seen one in person, and it was about a week ago - a BMC team replica frame, really sweet looking in person.

as an aside, Phonak, Team Phonak and BMC are all owned by the same individuals.

The only review I've seen on a BMC bike was in the August issue of Bicycling magazine. It was a BMC Streefire SSX Team. $699 for frame and Easton fork. The frame is Aluminum, and the component package is Shimano 105 I believe. I also think it has the same geometry as the SLT 01. That's all I can really tell you. I have never seen someone on one of these bikes around here. The only one I have seen was at a bike shop.
