$5500 for a bicycle for the everyman?!?!? You are absolutely crazy!!!! You don't know what everyman median income looks like. I think $1000 is more reasonable
Guys to be honest the guy that commented before is right 5999 for a bike is not a choice for the everyday man is for the enthusiasts at least all tho it’s a beautiful bike if you are braking the 2K barrier it doesn’t make sense for any one who is not training for a race or something
6k is not cheap for a bike but in the world of enthusiast cycling where top spec bikes are 10k+, this is a good buy
This bike and channel are for enthusiasts. If you enjoy cycling and spend hours a week on a road bike, you are probably willing to spend some money on a nicer bike than the casual rider.
With that being said, this is an incredible price for a bike of this caliber. This review was great and informative for the viewer.
On another note, I would like to add the all-new Trek Madone, SL 7 with Ultegra Di2 and a mid-size crank for $6500 US (the SL 6 is $5500 US). This is actually a better deal than the SL 6… That is if you are an enthusiast. 😊
What parts would you need to order to use the one piece bar?
Di2, carbon wheels, aero frame, 8kg-ish, and the fact Trek moved away from BB90 makes this an incredible deal. I got a feeling I'd easily be able to maintain over 40km per hour on the flats easier compared to my old Emonda SLR.
Would love to see the black version, is it matt bare carbon or just matt black?
You could just buy a canyon aeroad with better components and wheels and less weight cheaper.
heck I pity the average cyclist of today , unaffordable heavy monstrosities trust upon them – I give it a year an that seapost will have fallen through its mounting
Nice. I have it ordered, now a long wait of 6 months.
Size 60, maybe the seatpost will fit me, I have relatively short legs for my height 🙈
What cracks me up is modern bikes compared to vintage bikes. There are vintage bike shows that display bikes from 40 50 even 75 years ago that are still beautiful and perfectly rideable. Those days will be gone because modern bikes made of carbon aren't ever going to hold that level of quality and durability. The stuff present day bikes are made from is barely fit for purpose and not worth much at all to me. I would much rather prefer to have a custom builder build me something out of steel.
I brought the SLR version and i got it down to 16.6 lbs using TPU inner tubes..the bike is quick, holds speed, and is very comfortable..i just got rid of my 2022 tarmac sl7 s-works because it would beat me up after just 40miles..the madone is much more comfortable and still fast…i used to be a specialized fan boy but nowadays i have no loyalty to these brands..lol
nice and expensive toy for enthusiasts. nothing more and nothing less. If you want to ride roadbike, you can do it for less money. (Of course also for more)
£5,600 for a bike with the 105 groupset which is a great groupset, but not even Ultegra at that price. WOW. My Canyon cost $1800 US and it has the 105. No wonder they say Canyon is a good value. Their $2100 CF 8 has the Ultegra groupset. Come on Trek!!!!! It is a gorgeous bike though.
You guys having a laugh RIGHT ??? Since when a 5600 pounds bike is affordable by most ?? Mostly in England where people can no longer pay their bills LOL You guys are selling a DREAM BIKE
😅
