Trek Madone SLR 9 Gen 7 2024 features

Unprecedented aerodynamics

All-new aerodynamic Kammtail frame shapes, bar/stem design, and rider position make Madone SLR our fastest road race bike yet.

Exclusive IsoFlow technology

Never before seen IsoFlow technology specifically designed for the 7th generation Madone SLR shaves weight, improves aerodynamics, and smooths your ride.

Our lightest Madone disc ever

Super lightweight 800 Series OCLV Carbon and a new lightweight design make this our lightest Madone disc ever.

New ergonomic bar/stem

A newly optimized bar/stem that’s 3cm narrower in the hoods than the drops offers a more comfortable and ergonomic riding position for faster racing, improved aerodynamics, and ultimate control. Use the same bar/stem size you’re used to – if you normally ride with a 42cm bar/stem, opt for 42cm in the drops and 39cm in the hoods.

Refined integration

Every element of this bike is part of a greater whole. It has invisible cable routing, aero cockpit, hidden seatmast, and more.

Shimano Dura-Ace Di2

The pinnacle of Shimano road technology and innovation, the new 12 speed Dura-Ace Di2 R9200 is Shimano’s fastest ever. Speed was the driving force behind this next-generation road group. That’s why every component was refined, designed, and fine-tuned to make you faster – whether you’re sprinting to the finish on the Champs-Elysees or crushing your local climb.
