BMC Kaius 01 TWO: Carbon Gravel Race Bike with SRAM Force AXS 2x12 and Power Meter

The BMC Kaius 01 TWO is a competitive gravel bicycle engineered to deliver maximum speed across hardpack gravel, white roads, and mixed tarmac and dirt courses. Built around the ultralight 01 Premium Carbon frame with Aerocore design, this ready to ship configuration stands out for a technical spec prized by racers who demand the tight gearing progression of a double chainring setup: wireless electronic SRAM Force eTap AXS Wide 2x12 drivetrain with an integrated power meter, Easton EC70 AX carbon handlebar, and 1,499 gram CG39 carbon wheels.

01 Premium Carbon Frame (910 g), Gravel Race Geometry and ICS2 System

Developed by transferring BMC road racing frame technologies to fast off road riding, the Kaius 01 TWO structure combines power transfer with vertical vibration damping:

• TCC Race Compliance Layup and Featherweight Construction: The high modulus carbon fiber frame weighs just 910 grams (paired with a 400 gram fork and a 160 gram D shaped seatpost). The dedicated carbon layup filters high frequency chatter over rough ground while reinforcing impact zones exposed to flying gravel.
  
  
• Race Geometry and 44 mm Tire Clearance: A longer frame reach works together with a shorter stem to increase front end stability at high speeds and climbing traction over loose surfaces, clearing tires up to 44 mm.
  
  
• Integrated BMC ICS2 Stem and Easton EC70 AX Carbon Bar: The ICS2 (Integrated Cockpit System) hides all hydraulic brake lines inside the frame while allowing our mechanics to easily adjust spacer stack height and stem length. Pairing it with the Easton EC70 AX carbon handlebar (featuring a 16 degree flare) provides descending control and vibration damping for your hands and arms.

The Advantage of the SRAM Force AXS Wide 2x12 Groupset and CG39 Carbon Wheels

Unlike single chainring drivetrains that force wider jumps between gears, the 2x12 speed SRAM Force eTap AXS Wide setup on the Kaius 01 TWO delivers seamless cadence progression, ideal for maintaining optimal pedaling efficiency both in fast flat group rides and on long mountain climbs:

• 43/30T Crankset with Power Meter and 10/36T Cassette: The combination of 43/30 tooth chainrings featuring an integrated SRAM Force DUB Wide spider power meter and a 10/36T cassette covers every gradient with tight single tooth steps at high speed.
  
  
• 1,499 g CG39 Carbon Wheelset: The tubeless carbon wheelset featuring a 39 mm rim profile, wide 25 mm internal channel, and straightpull hubs with a Star Ratchet engagement system reduces rotational weight during accelerations and comes shod with fast rolling 40 mm Pirelli Cinturato Gravel H tires.

The Novo Cicli Workshop: Custom Fit Sizing and Ready to Ship Stock

At Novo Cicli (official BMC dealer), we prepare every in stock BMC Kaius 01 TWO on our workbench to adapt it to your biomechanical measurements prior to delivery:

• ICS2 Cockpit, Crankset, and Gearing Adaptation: Upon request, our workshop can swap the ICS2 stem length, carbon handlebar width, crank arm length, and cassette ratio.
  
  
• Tubeless Conversion and Workbench Setup: We deliver the bike with a complete tubeless setup on the CG39 wheelset, optional tire swaps up to 44 mm if you ride rougher terrain, SRAM AXS firmware updates, and full mechanical tuning for pickup in Besnate (Varese) or insured international shipping.
