Frequently Asked Questions - Teammachine SLR01 BMC

How to route the mechanical derailleur cables on the BMC Teammachine SLR01?

Use the DT stopper in the down tube and the cable guide under the right chainstay. Insert the rear (REAR) and front (FRONT) cables respecting the crossing or non-crossing at the cockpit. Avoid twisting the cables for precise shifting.

How to install the Di2 system on this bike?

Install the DT cover and BB cover. Use a mechanical guide cable to route the Di2 cables: rear, main, front, and battery power. Connect all cables to the junction piece, then place it in the bottom bracket. Mount the battery in the seatpost with the threaded adapter.

What is the recommended rear brake cable housing length?

The length depends on the headset cover height and stem length. Refer to the table in the manual for an accurate measurement from the handlebar (60 mm from the center of the stem) to the cable entry. As an indication, for a 100 mm stem and covers <30 mm, count 180 mm.

How to install the headset?

Grease the bearings (N°3 and 4) and the frame seats. Place the bearings in the frame. Grease the steerer and the conical surface of the fork (N°5), then insert the fork. Add the compression ring (N°2) and the conical cover (N°1) before tightening the stem. Two cover heights are provided (8 and 15 mm).

What are the tightening torques for the seatpost?

The seatpost collar tightens to 5 Nm maximum. The saddle clamp screws tighten to 7 Nm maximum. Apply friction paste on the contact surfaces before tightening.

Can the original seatpost be cut?

Yes, you can cut the seatpost up to 80 mm from its end without affecting the structure. Caution: cutting voids the warranty and BMC disclaims any liability in case of problems.

How to replace the Di2 battery?

Disconnect the battery from the Di2 cable in the seatpost. Unscrew the threaded adapter to release the battery. Insert the new battery into the adapter, screw until contact with the foam, then connect it to the cable. Put the battery back into the seatpost.

What is the difference between the DO stopper and the rear brake stopper?

The DO stopper for mechanical derailleur is cylindrical, without a flat spot. The rear brake stopper has a flat spot that must be oriented downward during installation.

How to clean and maintain the carbon frame?

Use a soft cloth dampened with soapy water. Avoid high pressure cleaners and aggressive solvents. Dry with a clean cloth. Lubricate the chain regularly and check wear of the brake pads.

Introduction

The new BMC teammachine SLR01 frameset and components are designed as a system to provide a very high level of riding performance.

Integration being a key part of the system's performance, it is necessary to understand that most components of the frameset have been designed specifically for the new teammate SLR01 and their function may slightly differ from your traditional road bike "off the shelf" components.

The new BMC teammachine SLR01 uses all the latest and most high-end technologies that can be found in bicycle manufacturing, including sharp edged and thin-walled carbon fibre composite construction, which should be treated with delicacy from the end user to prevent permanent and sometimes invisible damage.

For the reasons mentioned above, we ask you to carefully follow the instructions provided in this manual.

Incorrect mechanical operation on your bicycle could lead to serious damage, which could cause you to fall and lead to injury or death.

If you do not have the appropriate tools or experience to execute the following instructions, or if you need further information, please contact your official BMC dealer for service of your bicycle.

Gear cable routing for mechanical shifting

1. Prepare the frame for mechanical gear routing with the DT stopper (1) and the cable guide below the right chain stays (2).

1. Insert the rear derailleur cable (later RD cable) through the DT (3) stopper and exit it through the long hole near the bottom bracket (4). Repeat the operation for the front derailleur cable (later FD cable).

Note: For non-crossed shifting housings at cockpit (REAR cable entering right and FRONT cable entering left, as shown on the pictures above), the two cables need to run parallel through the DT. For crossed shifting housings at the cockpit (REAR cable entering left and FRONT cable entering right), the shifting cables need to be crossed again through the DT.

Important: please note that twisted cables are prohibited for both configurations (crossed, non-crossed). This would lead to inaccurate and bad shifting when changing gears.

1. Run the cables through the BB cable guide and take care on the respective grooves for RD cable and FD cable.

1. Insert the FD cable through the hole running behind the bottom bracket.

2. Place the cable guide inside the specific recess below the bottom bracket by clipping it front side first ①, then by pushing straight on the FD cable ② (5).

Complete by pushing in the middle of the cable guide straight on the clip ③ until you hear the "click" sound (6).

1. Run the RD cable through the cable guide below the chain stays, enter it at the bottom side of the chain stay and exit it through the hole above the drop out.

Then, put on the DO stopper and push it inside the hole.

Note: the DO stopper is cylindrical. There is no flat surface on it, and in opposition with the rear brake cable stopper (described in point 5. of section "Rear brake cable")

Di2 gear cable routing

1. Prepare the frame for Di2 gear cable routing by installing the DT cover (1) and the BB cover as shown on the picture (2) below. Please make sure that the BB cover is well clipped inside the frame (3).

When needed, please look at the instructions described in point 5. of section "Gear cable routing for mechanical shifting".

1. Use a mechanical wire gear shifting cable to guide the Di2 rear derailleur wire through the chain stay. Enter the frame at the drop out and exit at the bottom bracket.

1. Mount the battery inside the seat post:

2. snap the threaded Battery adapter over the battery,

3. screw in the adapter until the Hex touches the foam,
4. connect the battery to the Di2 cable.

Note: Cutting the seatpost to maximum length of 80mm (measured from BOTTOM of seatpost) can be done without affecting the structure of the seatpost.

WARNING: If the seatpost is cut, this is at the owner's risk and BMC are not liable for any possible related issues. Once a seatpost is cut, it also voids the warranty of that post.

1. Connect all Di2 wires coming out of the bottom bracket to the junction, please refer to Shimano installation instructions.

2. Push the wires and the junction back into the bottom bracket and the seat tube.

3. Install the Di2 plug at the drop out.

1. Install the Di2 grommets. Please refer to Shimano instructions.

Rear brake cable

1. Make sure that the frame is ready for the rear brake cable routing by checking the liner's presence through the top tube.

1. Please refer to the following chart in order to pre-define the length of the rear brake cable housing. This length (in mm) is measured from a point on the handlebar 60mm away from the center of the stem to the cable entrance at the head tube:

Spacers Stem length** (mm)
height* 80 90	100 110 120	130 140
<30mm 180 190	195 200 210	215 220
>30mm 185 195	200 205 215	220 225

* the spacers height includes the conical top cap below the spacers (low=8mm or high=15mm)
** the reference stem has an angle of -6°

Note: this table should be used as a guide only.

1. Insert the cable through the liner.

Headset and Fork Installation

1. Apply grease on the bearings (N°3 and 4) and on the bearing seats of the frame. Place the bearings in the frame.
2. Apply grease on the shaft and on the crown of the fork (N°5), and then slide it through the bearings and the head tube.
3. Slide the compression ring (N°2) over the fork shaft.
4. Slide the top cap (N°1) over the compression ring and then setup your stem.

Note: 2 different heights of top caps are delivered with the frame (low=8mm, high=15mm). Feel free to use the one which matches your position the best.

Note: the fork crown is designed so that the lower bearing can seat directly on it. There is no need to add a metal ring.

Seat clamp & seat post Installation

1. Install the saddle clamping hardware, by applying carbon friction paste at the lower clamp interface (between 2 and 5). Bolts (3) are then assembled with upper seat clamp (1) through the seat post (5). Take care that the spherical washers (4) are together with the bolts when assembling, and don't exceed the maximum torque of 7Nm when tightening.
2. Apply carbon friction paste on the lower part of the seat post (5) as well as on the inside of the seat tube.
3. Ensure that the seat clamp (6) is mounted on the frame.
4. Insert the seat post into the seat tube.
5. Tighten the seat post clamp bolt to 5Nm max.
