<\/a><\/p>\nThe high-performance discipline of cross-country racing has become, quite literally, a race to the top. Grueling, all-out sprints to the finish are supported with bikes whose maximum efficiency and minimum weight ethos pay no heed to compliance \u2013 until now. The new BMC Teamelite 01<\/a> is the culmination of an evolution of race bike performance. Its unique combination of efficiency, traction, and fatigue-fighting compliance technology places it in a category of its very own, and raises the bar by setting new industry standards.<\/p>\n Over the past 2 years, BMC\u2019s team of composite engineers have evolved carbon designs and tested and re-tested MTB prototype function and feasibility at the Impec Lab in Grenchen, BMC\u2019s in-house composites and engineering playground. After a final round of testing with the world\u2019s most successful mountain bikers, the BMC MTB Racing Team, the end result has come to life in the form of revolutionary race performance.<\/p>\n The new BMC Teamelite 01 possesses an innovative solution to rear-end hardtail compliance, coined Micro Travel Technology (MTT).<\/p>\n With this new system, cross-country racers can ditch the common practice of manipulating tire pressure to gain more compliance for technical descents. MTT\u2019s damping and additional frame compliance smoothes out the ride, let- ting riders apply more power to gain that elusive differentiator; speed.<\/p>\n Part carbon construction and part technical feature, MTT provides 15mm of rear-end compliance.<\/p>\n It is supported structurally by the dual- guided, fully integrated XCell damper that enhances lateral and torsional frame stiff- ness. Additionally, advances in the carbon technology used for the seat and chainstays, available only at the Impec Lab, maintain pedaling efficiency and guarantee bottom bracket stiffness.<\/p>\n The icing on the cake? All of these invaluable extras create a 1,080 gram total frame weight (hardware included) with absolutely no compromise to race performance. MTT is a clear advancement in cross-country MTB race technology.<\/p>\n In addition to the compliance advancements in the new hardtail, the rear-end of the bike has also received a facelift with 142 thru-axle spacing.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nMicro Travel Technology (MTT) \u2013 a new Solution for Rear-end Compliance<\/h2>\n
