New BMC Teammachine R ride feel, details, Red Bull racing interview

The new BMC Teammachine R was designed with Red Bull Advanced Technologies. BMC invited me down to Austin, Texas to visit with Red Bull at the Formula 1 race where Red Bull driver Max Verstappen won handily. I test rode the bike on the F1 track and on the roads around Austin. Here, I share the details on the bike, give you my ride impressions, and also share an interview I did with Rob Gray, technical director for Red Bull Advanced Technologies. BMC claims its latest bike is lighter, stiffer, faster… of course it is, right? That talk is to be expected. What's curious is that this latest aero bike isn’t an aero bike, according to BMC. They are calling this an all-around race bike. What what you call a bike with 62mm-deep wheels and such deep frame shaping? -- The Ride is supported in 2023 by: Castelli clothing: https://www.castelli-cycling.com Giro helmets: https://www.giro.com Feedback Sports stands & tools: https://www.feedbacksports.com -- 00:00 intro 01:06 overview 01:52 by the numbers 04:07 ride feel 09:02 Rob Gray interview 17:15 aero comparisons
