Gravel riding is a burgeoning segment in the cycling industry and for good reason. Secluded roads, fewer people, and more challenging terrain provide many riders with exactly what they are looking for: a way to escape on two wheels. BMC saw this as an opportunity to create the URS, a bike that is ahead of the curve with progressive geometry and a compliant ride that mellows out the chatter while being stable, predictable, and a total blast to ride.
The URS THREE lets the URS 01 premium carbon frame with Micro Travel Technology and Gravel+ Geometry take the spotlight on this build. Its clean and simple lines are complemented by a 1x11 Shimano GRX drivetrain with a 40T chainring and 11-42T Shimano Deore cassette in the rear. Hydraulic GRX brakes offer smooth modulation, and a Mavic Allroad Disc wheelset keeps you rolling over any type of terrain with a compliant and reliable ride.
