For those of you who know me, I’ve been waiting for over 4 months for this beauty. Thanks to Jackie at Beyond Bikes for her patience and help. At 2kg lighter than my current Trek 1.2, with alloy frame and the somewhat budget Sora groupset, I’m expecting great things and proof that improved performance can be bought (rather than the more traditional way of actually going training…). Still to be taken on its maiden voyage, I’ll report back with a view from the road.
For those spec geeks out there – it is Madone 5.2, SRAM Force Groupset and Bontrager RXL wheels.
The Trek Madone 5s and 6s range are now custom specced through the Trek ProjectOne site and then ordered through official dealers. The good thing is it allows you to choose groupset, gear ratios, wheels and the entire colour detailing for bars, stem, tape, tyres and cables all for the same price. You can then upgrade or downgrade components as you wish. It is a dangerous website for your wallet although well worth checking out!
Very nice. You'll have to tell us how it rides.
