7.62 kg isn't light for a "do everything racing bike" at this price range. The new Pinarello Dogma F and the S-works Tarmac sl8 are both around 6.6 kg at this spec level.
22K for a bike....what world are we living in? I'm all about high end experiences, but I'm pretty sure a bike half that price will feel 99% the same.
it should be illegal to sell a mountain bike for the price of a car
Fancy Aerodynamic Bike but there’s only one problem. The person that sits on it.
Brilliant insight. Most of us thought bikes pedaled themselves
@@NoahStephens 🤣
I don’t believe many of the aero claims. Fact is Trek is hurting financially and had to reduce its product line. I doubt the previous Madones were any faster. Fit is more importanter.
18.5K CAD.. is what bike prices had become.
in fairness that paint job alone increases the price by 4K (not exaggerating), so you can get the same spec for less with a more boring finish
do the new bottles fit in a small frame?
There is also the Domane
Madone Foil
Is the 7.62kg measured or claimed by Trek?
So that’s a 22k bike?!
wonder you’re height for m/l
Cool bike, but they should stop acting like they're the first to come up with this genius idea of making a combined aero and lightweight bike. Also this 18k dollar bike weighs the same as my non s-works sl7 so maybe buy one of those then spend the rest on a nice vacation somewhere to ride it.
Crazy price. The young racers that should be riding those can’t afford them. Only overweight doctors and dentists that should not be riding them will have the pleasure. Cycling pricing is stupid.
Agreed
Right on my friend!
Beautiful bike, yet an ugly Madone. And less aero. And heavier than the Emonda. And they had 3 years to address the market so that this wouldn't happen. At least Madone and Emonda fans now have something in common: We're disappointed.
Do drug dealers race bicycles too
