Extra UK have announced that they will be importing the full range of BMC road and mountain bikes into the UK. There will be a series of demos throughout the early summer where you can test ride these Swiss precision rocket ships.

The BMC bikes will be on offer with other products that Extra import and deal with: Intense, Maverick, Kona, Cove Bikes, Litespeed, Merlin, Rocky Mountain and recently added PACE ranges. The demos will be held on: 14-15 June at Dalby Forest, North Yorkshire (BMC, Intense, Maverick only) and 19-20 July at Coed-y-Brenin, North Wales.

But if you're after a truly personal ride experience of the BMC mountain bikes, then head on over to an event held in conjunction with one of the northern dealers, www.crosstrax.co.uk in Leeds, on the evening of 11 June from Crosstrax’s Leeds shop.

Organized rides will be held from 6.30pm, rounding up eventually in the pub for fish and chips and cold lager for après-ride chat. The Crosstrax lot have some of the country’s best rollercoaster singletrack straight from their shop door. The bikes on offer will be the Team Elite hardtail, and the full suspension 4 Stroke and Trailfox.
