Pro Bike Check: Francois Bailly-Maitre’s BMC Trailfox TF01
BMC Rider Francois Bailly-Maitre had a strong season in 2014, from the very beginning he was a rider who was always a threat to the EWS podium. He finally found his form in La Thuile this year, taking second after a hard charging Damien Oton. The French rider started his racing career in XC becoming French Champion in 2005, but his fierce DH skills left him looking for new challenges and in 2011 he moved to enduro. His incredible fitness and momentum saw him take victory at the 2013 Megavalanche and he finished 8th overall in the 2014 EWS. We caught up with him in Finale to check out his BMC TrailFox TF01, a full carbon 150mm, 29inch bruiser.
