It's not just now after the Tour De France that you feel a twitch in your calf when you see the new Trek Madone SL 2019 models and immediately want to race up the next asphalt climb, your own mountain bike has to take a break! The Madone SL boasts the best aerodynamics, vibration-dampening Iso Speed joints, great handling and an impressive driving experience. New in 2019 is that the Madone SL is made from 500 Series OCLV Carbon, which further enhances the frame. This enables the right position for powerful propulsion and maximum performance.
Full speed ahead into the new year – the Madone SLR does not disappoint!
The tire size of the Madone model series is a maximum of 25C when delivered. Note: The Madone SL is not available with disc brakes; it is delivered with lightweight direct mount rim brakes. Super light: The Madone SL frame weighs 1,260 g and the fork 375 g.
Trek is not resting on the laurels of Madone fame:
Trek Madone SL 2019 & SLR 2019 Facts
Trek OCLV 700 Series aero carbon frame (SL model with 500 Series Carbon)
Options: Disc or direct mount rim brakes
Total weight SLR 9 Disc with Dura Ace Di2: 7.65 kg (according to manufacturer)
Streamlined: The 2-part aero cockpit with various adjustment options
A plus of 17% in terms of comfort (adjustable Iso-Speed joint on the top tube with damping)
Chic: Project One custom paint jobs available
The heart of the matter: the frame
A highlight of the 2019 Madone models is the adjustable Iso-Speed coupling in all variants, meaning that the seat dome is decoupled from the top tube. Like a leaf spring, it can spring backwards and downwards. Trek promises up to 17% more flexibility in the maximum comfort setting. There is also damping for the return movement so that even pedaling can be optimized.
Cockpit streamlined & Geo new
The elegant 2-part handlebar-stem combination is indicative of the high level of innovation of the Trek Madone SLR: This provides more stem variants and other handlebar sizes, the handlebar can be adjusted by around +/-5 degrees. The conventional A-head variant serves as the stem. The new H1.5 geometry comes with a seat tube that is around 2 cm shorter for all frame heights. A sportier seating position thanks to a little more length reflects the character of the Madone SLR! The Trek Madone SL 2019 comes with the well-known H2 geometry.
The Trek Madone 2019 is available in three different SLR-level equipment variants as well as in a version for men and women with the cheaper SL frame, which has a different carbon fiber quality.
Female-friendly: The women's models come with women-specific contact points (saddle, handlebar width and stem length).
