Need a Gen 7 vs Gen 8 comparison like you did Madone vs Tarmac
Probably test both bikes with aero bottle
Tall person with a tall saddle height (84cm) here haha. The look of the Madone felt weird at first but now I totally dig it. I’m 6-4 and ride a XL TCR now. I guess XL should fit perfectly. Ok heading to the P1 website now. Thanks!
As a 6ft person, when i sat on a ML it felt significantly better than a L, though i will have to order a 120mm(+6mm for RED E1 Levers luckily) for the stem to get the same fit as a 110mm on the previous madone in a 58cm.
This is with me nearly maxing the long post seat height. Going the same build as trey 👍 looks awesome!
Nice bike!
Wow Trey that’s a nice bicycle
The sizing of this bike, while questionable for most, sounds perfect for me. I'm maxed out on the 58cm gen 7 Madone seatpost, so I have this weird high stack saddle and 175mm cranks. I could finally have a normal setup with this large. I am also 5'11, lol.
How is it compare to the New Madone with Enve Melee? interest on both and decide which to get.
dats niiiiiice
Bike looks very nice. Out of curiosity what is Trey's saddle height? I'm also 5'11 and now thinking should I be on a M/L or a L
Is that a 350mm post on the Melee?
The M is like a 52/54 with short stem, short post and 170mm cranks.
@Trey: Can you please describe your driving impressions? is the gen 8 really as fast as the gen 7? i can't imagine....
In the future, of you're building a Trek from a P1 box, slide the box off the base, then you can remove the cardboard tubing and free the bike up easier.
Gotta assert your dominance over the box
Were the wheels setup up Tubeless during the weighing of the Madone and did they have sealant in them (if so, how much roughly?) or just pumped up with air?
I put a lot of sealant in
Melee v Madone vid please
I’m looking at the project one builds and there aren’t options to change the handlebars or seatpost. Is that something that can only be done by trek dealers?
100%. You can pick every fit part even crank length.
Go to a shop, they'll walk you through it. Should be able to customize it to what you want/need.
The component sizes should be under the sizing portion of the P1 build if you're doing it at home.
Does the black SLR frameset on Treks site look like this?
This is exactly that color
Why wouldn’t you take a hacksaw to the longer seatpost rather than spending $300 for a shorter one?
That would be to easy and logical. The post wedge sits in the post and you can’t cut it at all.
I’m 6’1” and looking at the numbers I think they need a size between the L and XL.
Just curious what stem length you’d have to run on either bike
normally a 110 but I think I’d have to go to a 120 on this bike. What makes me nervous is it has a longer chain stay than my TCR but a shorter top tube/reach which makes me think I might get some toe overlap on the large. Looking at the XL though, the wheelbase is the same as my L TCR but the stand over is so high I don’t think I could ride it.
It’s the exact same issue I’d have trying to ride the large. There’s no way I could stand over it. And if Trey needed the short seatpost it scares me that I wouldn’t be able to get it low enough on the large. The M/L would fit me but with a 120 or 130 stem.
MF DOOM mentioned!!!!!!!
Agreed- geometry is wonky. 56.3 TT and a 100 stem on a size large- WTF
sizing seems crazy i’m 6ft and ride a 58 emonda with a 130 stem and honestly wanted to size down to a 56 but now there’s no chance
Beard
The sizing is too weird for me.
I still can’t wrap my head around it. I know I could make it work but it’s a lot of brain power
Want one of these so bad. My wallet wants the $3500 105 mechanical sl 5 and just buy some quality chinese wheels but my eyes want the $6500 black and purple sl 7
The purple one is so cool. We sold one today. It’s got this amazing green in it also
@@bicyclestation your words are drowning out the voice of my wallet
You should get another one now that it’s Madone 16 so that it becomes Madone 24. Like 2024, get it? 😂
Ugly. Previous gen madone was better looking
Black is atrocious color way for this bike
