Through hydroforming, we have succeeded in adapting the triple-butted aluminium tubes in a way that will perfect the flow of forces. Using this method, we create a frame which offers optimal power distribution and substantial weight-savings. for racing.
Hydroforming technology combined with the high-quality aluminium tubing makes this thoroughbred hardtail incredibly light, agile and powerful

The unique juncture of our seat tube cluster which ideally distributes forces remains our most visible innovation. For the racemaster SLX01 we have developed a bonded skeleton concept BSC which embraces the seat tube, aiding in the distribution of forces by providing a larger adhesive surface. This innovation achieves an extremely rigid and absolutely safe carbon-aluminum interface at this very important junction.
The substantial bottom bracket is instrumental for each BMC as forming the frames rigid core and consequently acts as the power center from which the chain stays, seat tube and down tube originate. The tubes are uncompromisingly aligned with the entire width of the bottom bracket so that the intense forces introduced by the act of pedalling can be ideally transmitted. The success of the design results in a powerfully propelled bicycle.
Triple butted tube set in a 7005 alloy. Triple butted means that the tube has three different wall thicknesses.
