Madone SL 6 AXS Gen 8

Madone SL 6 AXS Gen 8 is built to keep the pace high as the gradient changes. Full System Foil aerodynamic profiles reduce air resistance, while the carbon construction and race geometry give Madone Gen 8 a character suited to accelerations, climbs and fast group rides.

• Comfort at speed: The IsoFlow seat tube allows the saddle area to flex and absorb impacts from the surface. This helps when you want to hold your position and keep pushing on uneven tarmac.
• SRAM Rival AXS: The Rival AXS wireless electronic rear derailleur offers 12 speeds with 48/35 chainrings and a 10-36 cassette for handling fast sections and climbs.
• Aeolus Elite 50: The 50mm Bontrager OCLV carbon wheels are Tubeless Ready, as are the 28mm R3 tyres. The SL frame uses OCLV 500 Series carbon.

Aerodynamics, pedalling response and comfort work together: a Madone for the whole route, from the first climb to the fast ride home.

Trek was founded in 1976 in Waterloo, Wisconsin, by Dick Burke and Bevil Hogg and is still based in the same city today. It makes road, mountain, gravel, city and electric bikes to support different ways of riding. Its story began in a barn, with 904 steel touring frames produced in its first year.
