Madone SL 6 AXS Gen 8

Description

The Madone SL 6 AXS Gen 8 is a lightweight aerodynamic road bike that makes elite technologies accessible thanks to a more affordable OCLV 500 carbon layup compared to the SLR model. The SRAM Rival AXS E1 electronic groupset ensures very fast shifting. Paired with an alloy handlebar, it helps keep the price down. Additionally, it comes complete with ultralight high-performance carbon wheels.
