Today I tested out the new 2025 Dogma F and compared it to my current bike, a 2021 BMC Teammachine SLR01. I mainly wanted to test ride the new Dogma as I've been having some back pain recently, so wanted to see if this Dogma was an improvement in both comfort and performance.
The Dogma F was equipped with new Ultegra 12 speed, while the BMC has the slightly older Dura-Ace 9100 11-speed. The new Dogma F was a demo bike that was set up with my wheels, tires and saddle so that I could have a true head to head comparison on the dogma F vs BMC frame and geometry. The Dogma on paper is slightly more relaxed, but has a stiffer bottom bracket and more progressive geometry.
Watch and hear my thoughts in real time and I take the Dogma F for a test ride around my local roads, talking about how it feels compared to the BMC, what I like, don't like, and if the Dogma F lives up to its reputation.
Thanks to Serious Cycling for setting up this demo.
