A brand new BMC time trial bike, to be known as the Speedmachine, has today been announced by the Swiss brand.

The most striking feature of the new time trial/triathlon bike is the very wide stance of the fork legs and the seat stays, which are reminiscent of the Hope x Lotus track bike ridden by Team GB and indeed, BMC’s own Trackmachine which we spotted at the UCI World Championships in Glasgow last month.
