Does anyone have experience with or opinions on BMC's aluminum bike called Teammachine ALR?
Most of BMC's offerings are carbon, but I like the prices of their aluminum models around $1500 and I've been happy enough thus far with my other aluminum bikes that I'm considering this one from BMC, or a CAAD 13.

Everything here is flat with no climbs, so I don't really have the need for carbon based on weight concerns . . . I'm not opposed to carbon, but my unofficial price target is $2000 or less and I'm skeptical of some carbon offerings below $2000.
If were to break my price target, I'm primarily considering Cevelo's R2 (carbon) at approx $2500.
Any insight is appreciated, thanks in advance.
