American cyclist Floyd Landis has been riding bicycles provided by Swiss-based BMC at the 2006 Tour de France.
The bicycle Landis will likely ride to Paris on Sunday is this carbon BMC Pro Machine SLC01, specially outfitted in the colors of his yellow jersey. Phonak has been riding the Pro Machine bikes all year. Landis says they're light, but stiff at the bottom bracket.
The bike carries:
Groupset by Campagnolo;
Forks, handlebars and stem, and seatpost by Easton;
Flite Titanium saddle from Selle Italia;
Tires by Continental;
Carbon rims by Zipp;
Hubs and spokes by DT Swiss;
Lightweight pedals by Speedplay.
More information about SLC01 is available at the BMC website. Also, read a Pez Cycling's review of the bike from last March.
