Built a BMC URS Aluminum for the new year. We had the bike at the shop and thought it be fun to strip it down to frame and rebuild. Did A Force Drivetrain and shifters and through on a rival powermeter crankset I had laying around. Went with garbaruk chain ring 46t and a 10/44 Garbaruk cassette. Replaced the fork with an All Black raw BMC urs replacement fork since the old color was a bad color combo. Went with Reynolds carbon wheels and maxxis 40/700 receptor tires for road and gravel use. Went with 40 width whiskey carbon road bars since I can’t stand wide gravel bars and did a bmc redshift stem. Went with a Selle Italia SLR gravel ti saddle and whisky carbon seatpost.

Whole bike with flatpack and snack bag filled with snacks came in at 21.5lbs and 19.8 stripped down. Did the first group coffee ride today to test it out and held a 19.4 average for 27.5 miles with 1000 feet of elevation so definitely can go fast. Definitely gonna run this at the quad crown BWR race coming up. Probably gonna throw on a 48t chainring for that thought. All in all MSRP for the bike was 2399 and put around $4500 in parts on it. Definitely a fun bike to play with.
