Greg Bennett is one of triathlon's most successful pros, having won eleven of the fifteen Life Time Series events he entered. He is currently riding on BMC's high-end TM01 bike, complete with Di2 livery and a custom BTA bottle setup. We caught up with him for all the ins and outs of his svelte machine.

  • Greg Bennett's BMC TM01 is one mean machine.
  • We saw Greg on a training ride, where he stopped at the Boulder Reservoir to cheer on wife and eventual winner at the Boulder Peak 5150.
  • Bennett poses with his BMC TM01
  • Zipp Firecrest 404's are some of the fastest racers on the planet, and Bennett also uses the for training.
  • Power measuring duties go to the Dura Ace SRM.
  • Bennett keeps things nice and narrow on his HED Corsair aerobar.
  • The duct tape on his Zipp extensions are where he stashes his SRM computer.
  • No cables here - the BMC TM01 does a good job of keeping everything hidden.
  • No doubt, this is a great looking bike.
  • We were very interested in Bennett's custom BTA bottle setup, which he had made just for him.
  • His bottle hardware is held in place by the clamping system of the BMC's integrated stem.
  • Here you can see where the custom hardware is held in place in two different spots.
  • Bennett's rear solution is a single bottle, zip tied directly to the saddle. Bennett says this one isn't for constant access, but rather as a refill station for the front bottle.
  • The TM01 is a nice machine, from any angle.
