Designed to dominate everything from high-speed gravel races to long adventure rides, the Kaius 01 balances stiffness, lightness, and compliance to deliver unparalleled traction, stability, and efficiency.

At its core is BMC’s advanced composite carbon frame, featuring a premium layup that utilizes ultra-high modulus fibers for maximum power transfer and minimal weight.

Designed for both 1x and 2x drivetrains, the Kaius 01 is fully compatible with SRAM Full Mount UDH or Hangerless Interface derailleurs, ensuring future-proof drivetrain adaptability.

Innovation meets Swiss precision in every detail, from the meticulously engineered frame construction to the streamlined cockpit. Whether you’re sprinting for the podium or exploring the backroads at full gas, the Kaius 01 is built to be the fastest bike on gravel.
