BMC Kaius 01 TWO Disc Gravel Bike
The BMC Kaius 01 TWO is a race-ready, performance disc gravel bike that delivers speed over mixed terrain. The frame is constructed from premium carbon that maximises stiffness while keeping weight to a minimum. Tuned Compliance Concept Race Technology creates a more comfortable ride, helping to soak up the effects of harsh roads and preventing fatigue. Progressive race geometry incorporates a longer reach and shorter stem into the design for improved stability, increased traction and responsive handling.
BMC's Integrated Cockpit System (ICS) 2 not only gives the bike a sleek aesthetic but also reduces weight further, while Aerocore evolved design minimises drag by integrating the bottle cages into the frame. The frame itself features reinforcements in key areas to protect against damage that may be caused by riding fast off-road, such as in the event of rock strikes.
SRAM Rival eTap AXS drivetrain and brakeset incorporate much of the technology of the higher-level wireless electronic offerings without adding much extra weight, delivering impressive performance. Shifting is instant and precise, and the combination of 43/30-tooth chainrings and wide 10-36 tooth cassette ensures there are plenty of gears for steep climbs, fast flats and descents alike. Hydraulic disc brakes allow fast stopping for confidence at speed and in all conditions.
BMC's CRD-400 wheels are ideal for gravel and adventure riding, with the wide, tubeless-ready rim able to accept bigger volume tyres. They're fitted with Pirelli Cinturato Gravel H 40mm tyres that are ideal for smooth rolling and grip on hard-packed surfaces. There's room for 44mm tyres so you can go wider still, and compatibility with both 1x and 2x drivetrains means you can fine-tune the bike to your preferred setup.
