BMC Teammachine SLR
Racers who want BMC's classic race fit. Roadmachine if you need stack.
BMC's lightweight race bike: steep, precise, and a WorldTour stack/reach reference. Less aero than Teammachine R / Timemachine.

Aero racers. If you want light and conventional, R5; if you want endurance, Caledonia.
The aero Cervelo: V-stem, deep tubes, and a bike that wants to be ridden fast in a straight line and still corners better than its looks suggest.
Racers who like Cannondale's handling and want the serviceable frame. Synapse is the taller sibling; SuperX is the CX/gravel race cousin.
The fourth-generation EVO keeps the third generation's geometry but goes lighter, slipperier, and back to a threaded BSA bottom bracket. Same fit as the 2020–2022 bike, easier to live with.
