Trek Madone SL 5 Gen 8

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Madone SL 5 Gen 8 is a lightweight aerodynamic road bike that brings professional-level race bike technology to a more affordable price point. It offers the same aerodynamic performance as the more expensive Madone SLR Gen 8, but with a more affordable OCLV 500 carbon frame and separate handlebars and stem with internal cable routing. The Shimano 105 groupset and aluminum handlebars and wheels keep the price reasonable without compromising performance.

The Lightest Madone SL Disc Ever

The new lightweight and fast aerodynamic tube design combined with lightweight and affordable 500-series OCLV carbon makes the Gen 8 the lightest disc-brake SL-level Madone frame set ever, and the ideal bike for climbing steep ascents.

Redefines What Fast Looks Like

The revolutionary aerodynamic Full System Foil tube design improves airflow around the entire bike while maintaining the lightness needed for climbing. The bike was also designed with the whole system in mind (bike, rider, equipment) and tested relentlessly to achieve the fastest possible result.

Adjustable Aerodynamic Cockpit

The Madone Gen 8 features narrower bar ends than the base bars, allowing you to adjust your riding position to improve aerodynamics or power. The two-piece design also makes fit adjustment quick and easy.

Aerodynamic Bottles Make the Whole Bike Faster

RSL Aero bottles and bottle cages with aerodynamic Madone Full System Foil design are designed to make the whole system even faster.

Shimano 105

The Shimano 105 mechanical model's shifting technology, derived from Ultegra and Dura-Ace models, ensures top-tier shifting at an affordable price. Whether you cycle to work year-round or compete in major races, Shimano 105 is the workhorse of drivetrain performance that won't hold you back from progressing in the sport.

Don't Forget Your Pedals

Pedals are not included with this bike, as you can enjoy a better riding experience by choosing your own pedals. Explore the pedal finder and find the best pedals for your riding style. We recommend clipless pedals for the control and efficiency they offer.
