This bike is very easy to shoulder thanks to the tidy main frame. The rear triangle, which works according to the "Virtual Pivot Point" design principle, ensures efficient propulsion: Because the swingarm is connected to the main frame via two short levers rather than a pivot point, the more traction there is on the chain, the more the rear hardens. A simple, kinematic approach to avoid annoying bobbing when climbing.

With the "Fourstroke", whose rear triangle offers a maximum of 100 millimetres of travel, BMC covers a very broad price range: the cheapest model is available for less than 2500 francs, the top model with Scandium main frame, carbon swingarm and high-quality parts costs three times as much, but also scratches the 11-kilo mark. And of course there is also a model for women, the "Fourstroke W26". Also completely new are the "Blast" models, which are set to shake up the student bike market with their massive frames, large lettering and price-conscious features.
