“With 20mm of customisable suspension built in to its MTT Suspension carbon fork, the URS LT offers even greater all-terrain performance. Its plush coil spring and hydraulic damper design complements sporty and efficient riding styles, and filters out obstacles for a confidence-inspiring ride. Add in the Premium Carbon frame’s MTT seat stays, and you have a bike built for comfort and speed, further enhanced by SRAM’s Force and Eagle eTap AXS 12-speed groupset and the CRD-400 Carbon wheelset.” – https://bmc-switzerland.com
