"BMC is taking its top-tier mountain platform and turning it into a blank canvas. The Fourstroke R 01 VAR0 is the latest model to join BMC's VAR0 lineup. Oh, you don't know Var0? It's a very cool idea (imo). It's basically a stripped-back, bare-carbon version of BMC's flagship frames, built for riders who want performance and personalization in equal measure."
"BMC's VAR0 platform starts with its 01-level (top-tier) framesets, the same ultra-high-modulus carbon used across the Swiss brand's World Cup and WorldTour race bikes. By removing the complete paint layer and applying only a thin clear coat, BMC exposes the weave and saves grams, while giving riders the option to make the frame uniquely theirs. VAR0 isn't just for the aesthetic crowd. The finish protects the frame, requires minimal prep before painting, and is light enough to give weight-weenies a performance edge who prefer the raw-carbon look."
"Each VAR0 frame ships with all factory hardware and retains BMC's standard warranty (as long as the UCI decals and serial numbers remain in place after painting). The newest addition to the VAR0 program, the Fourstroke R 01. It's BMC's World Cup-proven cross-country platform, redesigned around modern geometry and their fully integrated Autodrop seatpost system. In VAR0 form, it strips everything down to its performance essentials: a bare-carbon, precision-tuned frame that balances stiffness, efficiency, and a shockingly low weigh"
