Izcelsme
BMC Kaius tika laists klajā 2023. gadā kā BMC flagmaņa grants sacīkšu velosipēds, kas izstrādāts, lai pārvarētu plaisu starp ceļa ātrumu un bezceļa spējām. Tam ir unikāla 'Airfoil' caurules forma, kas aizgūta no BMC šosejas velosipēdiem, integrēta kabeļu ievilkšana un raksturīga 'Micro Travel' piekares sistēma aizmugurējā trīsstūrī, kas nodrošina 10 mm atbilstību. Kaius ir izstrādāts uz sniegumu orientētiem grants braucējiem, kuri meklē ātru, aerodinamisku un spējīgu mašīnu sacīkstēm un prasīgam grants reljefam. Tas joprojām tiek ražots un ir BMC apņemšanās pret attīstošo grants tirgu.

Verdikts
+Stiprās puses
- Exceptionally light for a gravel bike — sub-1 kg frame (910 g) and full builds around 7.1-7.7 kg, on par with race road bikes.
- Blistering speed on smooth gravel, hardpack and tarmac; aero tube shapes and stiff BB make it 'without peer' when conditions suit it.
- Superb SRAM XPLR AXS shifting and fluid-damper chain management keep the drivetrain quiet and taut over rough ground.
- Clean, fully integrated ICS Aero cockpit and cable routing with genuine aerodynamic benefit.
- Excellent component spec on flagship builds (Zipp 303 Firecrest wheels, Fizik Vento Argo saddle).
−Vājās puses
- Harsh, unforgiving ride on choppy or technical terrain — stiff frame becomes 'bone-shaking, finger-numbing'; limited compliance.
- Very narrow handlebar (360 mm at hoods) is polarizing and uncomfortable for wide-shouldered riders, especially in technical sections.
- Race-focused geometry and cockpit hinder handling on singletrack and rough trails — a handful when the going gets rowdy.
- Tire clearance of 44 mm (original) is modest and 'not as good as claimed'; limits use on muddy or chunky terrain.
- Fully internal cable routing makes maintenance inconvenient; very high price with no power meter included.
