Trek ’s Madone SL 6 8th Gen SRAM Rival AXS 12v Bontrager Aeolus Elite 50 Gloss Fury Red Matte Deep Smoke is a road bike designed for cyclists who want to ride fast whilst enjoying a high level of comfort over long distances. Its OCLV 500 Series carbon frame incorporates the latest innovations developed by Trek, notably IsoFlow technology, which enhances vertical compliance without compromising the frame’s stiffness. This design results in a responsive, precise and particularly enjoyable bike to ride, capable of excelling in both training rides and competitions.
The 8th generation of the Madone adopts a holistic aerodynamic approach with Full System Foil tubes, fully integrated cable routing and ‘ Race ’ geometry, offering a perfect balance between efficiency and stability. The T47 bottom bracket optimises power transfer, whilst the clearance for tyres up to 32 mm improves comfort, grip and versatility on all types of terrain. The full-carbon fork also contributes to precise handling and provides excellent control on fast descents and when changing pace.
This version is fitted with the SRAM Rival AXS E1 12-speed electronic drivetrain, renowned for its fast gear changes and high reliability. The Bontrager Aeolus Elite 50 carbon wheels, with their 50 mm profile, offer excellent aerodynamic performance whilst maintaining good stability as speed increases. Combined with the Trek RCS cockpit, the Bontrager Aeolus Elite saddle and the brand’s top-of-the-range components, they enable the Madone SL 6 8th Gen to deliver dynamic, efficient and exceptionally versatile handling, ideal for cyclists seeking a fast, modern bike ready to perform on all terrains.
