2021 BMC Teammachine
Moderator: robbosmans
SLR01 is the highest tier of teammachine bikes, the others without the 01 are lower tier. Main difference is the lack of integrated cockpit and a slightly heavier frameset.
The endurance type for BMC are the roadmachines models.

Hi Guys,
I may have a change to get a Teammachine SLR 01 frameset; I don't have a groupset for it yet, but I'm hoping I'll be able to get Ui2 or Force in spring time. Anyways, I do have a question regarding the Teammachine's fork steerer tube. I've seen that the steerer tube is not round, but rather rectangular and slim. I understand this was done to allow the cable routing from the handlebar down to the frame. But, does anyone experience any problems with sideplay or flex because of it, especially in the left/right direction? From the images, the tube does seem quite narrow.
Thanks for any input,
Ivo

The steerer is round where needs to be. Inside the stem shims make it round so you can tighten the stem and above the fork blades it's still round.ivonenand wrote: ↑Fri Apr 01, 2022 8:32 amHi Guys,

That is my favorite color scheme from their lineup along with the team white frameset

Hey Guys,
I've noticed that the Teammachine SLR01 decalls are actually stickers and not paint; there's three of them, on the heat tube, down tube and one just behind the seatpost area. Does anyone have any problems with the stickers comming off after a while of use? I cannot imagine those stickers being very durable, especially considering that the bike can get cleaned ofter and the cleaning rag will rub into the sticker edges.
Any experiences?
