BMC (Switzerland) – "The Agonist is race-ready, and maybe you've even strapped on a number plate or two, but your biggest competitor is you. And you demand the best.

Its fast yet balanced nature dares you to conquer long climbs, descend with confidence, and corner with control, while tuned APS suspension delivers the ultimate combination of efficient climbing and controlled descending - so charge as hard as your legs and heart will allow, and come back grinning... even if the only ones watching are the birds and the deer.

BMC`s Big Wheel Concept is all about confident rollover, quick cornering, and intelligent frame design. Big wheels are perfect for any day, whether that means adventure, racing, or simply fun with friends. The Agonist's Hidden Shock Activation and full cable integration lead to a seamless, sleek design with an additional benefit: to protect from wear and tear.

From fast lunch rides with colleagues and scaling high peaks, all the way to a brutal day of racing - the Agonist is for those who like to test body against mind and muscle against muscle."
