THIS IS NOT A BIKE. IT'S A TROPHY:

Full carbon. Swiss-engineered. World Championship-proven.

This isn't someone's old weekend warrior with a dodgy derailleur. This is a BMC Fourstroke — one of the most decorated XC race platforms ever built.

BMC. THE PORSCHE OF BICYCLES.

Cadel Evans. Tour de France. BMC.

Greg Van Avermaet. Olympic Gold. BMC.

Tom Pidcock. MTB Olympic Gold. BMC Fourstroke.

2014. UCI XC WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Julien Absalon. Greatest XC rider who ever lived. Rolls to the start on a Fourstroke.

Crosses the finish line 2 minutes clear.

His words: "The bike made all the difference."

THE WINS DIDN'T STOP THERE.

✅ UCI World Championships ✅ Olympic Gold — Tokyo ✅ Swiss Epic Overall victory

The greatest riders. The biggest stages. One bike.

And now it's for sale.

THE SPEC. ABSOLUTELY STACKED:

• Suspension: Fox Factory 32 fork — Kashima coated, the best fork money can buy. Paired with a Fox Factory rear shock. R34,000 in suspension alone before anything else.

• Drivetrain: SRAM XX1 Eagle 1x11 — absolute top-tier SRAM. Flawless race-grade shifting in every condition. Built purely for performance.

• Frame & Carbon Parts: Full carbon frame, bars, and cranks — Swiss-engineered, ultra-light, brutally stiff, and still competitive with modern 2025/2026 XC race bikes.

• Wheels: DT Swiss Spline wheels — bombproof precision, race-proven strength, built to last.

• Tyres: Maxxis tubeless setup — maximum grip, lower pressures, fewer punctures. Includes separate tyre set.

• Brakes: Formula R1 brakes — surgical stopping power on steep descents and technical terrain.

• Dropper Post & Saddle: Fizik Aliante VSX saddle — premium race saddle with matching red accents, paired with a Lyne Contour dropper post for instant trail control at the push of a button.

THE UPGRADES. NOTHING CHEAP, NOTHING OVERLOOKED:

This bike has had over R10,000 spent on upgrades plus full professional servicing and fitting — bringing total investment to well over R150,000. Every detail was chosen with intent, and it shows.

• Dropper Post: Lyne Contour — lightweight, rock-solid, and instant on-the-fly height adjustment for full control the moment the trail turns technical. R3,850 (RSP)

• Chainring Upgrade: Absolute Black 32T oval chainring — smoother power stroke, better traction, more efficient climbing under load. R1,500 (RSP)

• Tyres: Maxxis Ardent Race 2.35 front, Crossmark 2.25 rear — fast-rolling race combo with fresh rubber and real-world grip. R2,000 (RSP)

• Saddle: Fizik Aliante VSX — premium race saddle with clean support and signature red accents that tie the build together perfectly. R2,600+ (RSP)

• Contact Points: Fresh ESI grips — locked-in feel, better control, all-day comfort

• Extras: Pedals + bottle cage included — fully ride-ready straight away

UNDER 10KG. AND THAT'S NOT A TYPO:

Sub-10kg. On a full-suspension XC race bike — with a dropper post and remote lockout already on board. In 2026. Let that land for a second.

The brand-new Trek Supercaliber SLR 9.9 XX retails for R300,000+ — that's literally 10× the asking price of this bike — and it weighs more. 

The latest BMC Fourstroke will set you back R275,000+ before you've even looked at upgrades.

This bike? World Championship pedigree. Olympic-level race platform. Sub-10kg race weight. A spec sheet that embarrasses bikes costing three times the price.

For a fraction of what any of those cost new.

That's not a deal. That's a steal.

THE APS SUSPENSION. PURE WITCHCRAFT:

Most dual-suspension bikes rob you. Every pedal stroke, watts bleeding into bob and flex. The Fourstroke's Advanced Pivot System was engineered to eliminate exactly that — and it does it better than almost anything built since.

The result is a bike that feels almost dishonest:

• Zero pedal bob — every watt goes forward, nothing wasted

• Climbs like a hardtail — brutal efficiency, no softness, no excuses

• Descends like a trail bike — supple, active, always composed

• Corners with surgical precision — carves when you want it, holds when you need it

• Accelerates like a rocket — explosive snap the moment you push

Loose when you want it. Locked in when you need it. Supple over rough terrain, a weapon the moment you put power down.

This is why it dominated World Cup XC racing for years — it wasn't just light and stiff. It was efficient in a way that felt unfair.

This is not a casual ride. This is a weapon.

-

CONDITION:

Outstanding throughout. Fully serviced, fully checked, and race-ready.

No issues. No work needed. Just ride.

Trails, marathons, stage racing, XC racing — it eats all of it and asks for more.

FINAL WORD:

This is not just another old carbon bike. This is a World Championship-winning, Olympic-proven, Swiss-engineered superbike — sub-10kg, full suspension, and still embarrassing modern bikes that cost three times the price.

At R29,990 you're getting elite suspension, an elite drivetrain, and a race pedigree that money genuinely cannot buy.

Less than the price of many average aluminium trail bikes.

Serious bike. Serious pedigree. Ridiculous value.
