BMC Alpenchallenge 01 Four

Considering my next bike. Currently have a C'dale Quick 5 which I like, but thinking about making that the winter bike and buying a nicer bike. Looking around the 1,500 range and I am digging this bike but would love feedback or other suggestions.

I just sold my 2016 Alpenchallenge Sora and have a 2021 01 One Carbon Drive on the way, Initially it was between the Alpenchallenge or the C-Dale Bad Boy. I’m quite happy with BMC and decided to stick with them. The Alpenchallenge is unlike any other out there, so is the Bad Boy too but the BMC has a much cleaner uncluttered look to it. It’s also FAST! 2021 colors are nice too! They are not out till mid September but my LBS was taking pre orders and showed me the colors and specs (colors & specs not out as of this post)

Great bikes but are extremely hard to come by right now so when I saw this 2020 AC2 01 a few weeks ago I bought it for the wife....she LOVES it. What color did you preorder???

Nice find!! They are indeed quite rare, which is one of the reasons I like them so much. I pre ordered the 01 One in anthracite (only color in that model), it has an 8 sp carbon drive. They got rid of the 11sp drive, I would imagine due the number of bad reviews on the 11 sp. Most of the reviews Ive read are not too good.

I have the Alfine 8 speed drive on my BMC and she has the Nexus 8 speed on that one....both with the Gates Carbon drive....they are amazing
