Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Deserves a better photo (not underexposed, chain on big ring) but very nice. Looks fast.

Blame it on the cell phone's camera LOL.

I have better pictures with a real camera on the same day, but couldn't get a card reader

A lot of my friends wanted that bike but with the limited sizing they just couldn't. Hope you love your BMC and post pictures ASAP

I have sad news. My BMC was destroyed by a 180lbs teenager on a 30lbs beach cruiser who panicked and hit me head on, on the bike path

Wow. This post made me realize that my laptop that I've had for 4 months has a card reader. Thanks.

I could never tire of that. I have a 2011 Streetracer in red, and I love it (pics to come), but I really like the black BMCs. Especially with the pale green, but all black is nice too

Ohmannuel, I wonder if Calfee will take up the challenge of fixing your frame. That sucks.

The carbon weave really is something to marvel at, in the sun the frame is iridescent. Quite beautiful

Looks good, not a fan of the white spokes though myself, think some silver Spain's would be nicer, or black. Nice ride

I think the white sets it off! I would get a different saddle though.

I opted for the red one, but that is pretty. I think I would prefer black spokes too, but that is unique.

In the case of THAT saddle, you don't get a different one for looks. Yer butt tells ya. Took me about 200 miles to buy a Terry....may not be sexy, but me arse likes it.
