All of these bikes are solid choices and an average rider won't notice or benefit from the tiny differences in the performance if there are any amongst the bikes, but most importantly, the best bike is the one that fits you the best. The second best is the one that makes you want to get out there and ride. Sounds corny and cliché but it's true lol. Great video!

I've received my BMC Roadmachine TWO 01 (2026/2027) last week and With only 3 rides completed, my initial feedbacks are: this bike does everything well! It climbs well, it rolls fantastic and it's so smooth on the descents! A total race sofa😁😁

Well, that was a nice video. But it hasn't helped me one bit choosing my next bike, just add more to my growing short list.

I appreciate the wide swathe of bikes here but honestly it felt like you said almost virtually the same thing about each bike within each segment...I understand these are the brands you sell you don't want to put any of them down but you guys hardly did anything to differentiate them from one another.
