To commemorate George Hincapie's record-setting 17th Tour de France, BMC custom-painted this SL01 with gold highlights, "lucky seventeen" and "gentleman's round" motifs. Hincapie has a saddle height of 82.5cm, a reach of 62.3cm (tip of saddle to center of bars), uses a 140mm stem and 175mm crankarms. He trains and races with an SRM power meter, and uses a Fizik Aliante saddle. Photo: Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com
