Expirience with the BMC Fourstroke THREE

Ludwig Döhl The Fourstroke THREE has already earned its first laurels before its market launch. Pauline Ferrand Prevot has already won the 2022 Marathon World Championship with the bike developed in Switzerland. BMC is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the BMC Fourstroke THREE. Considering that in the range under 6000 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice! We like: 5 years warranty on the frame! Pay attention when selecting your size: the BMC Fourstroke THREE sizing runs big.
