Description:
Phonak’s BMC SLT 01 team bike combines an aluminium front end with carbon fiber chainstays and seatstays. It’s a combination that riders seem to appreciate, but it makes life tricky for manufacturers. Mating aluminium and carbon fiber successfully isn’t trivial, and the greater the contact area between the two parts, the better.

BMC‘s solution is to end the chainstays and seatstays in large plugs that fit into specially-made sockets in the frame. Of course, that’s a great excuse for the designers to get creative with shapes, lightening and reinforcement. BMC’s bottom braket shell and seat cluster end up looking more like pieces of sculpture than bike parts – art and engineering in one chunk of aluminium CNC.

Phonak‘s component mix is almost archetypical 2002 pro gear. Campagnolo provides the bulk of the running gear with the dependable Record 10s groupset chosen for gears and brakes.
