The Madone SL 6 Gen 8 is a lightweight aero road bike that stands out against its SLR siblings due to its more affordable 500 Series OCLV Carbon, without compromising on elite racing technologies. The electronic Shimano 105 Di2 groupset enables lightning-fast, wireless gear shifts, while the sturdy aluminum handlebar helps keep costs down. For super lightweight performance, the bike is equipped with sleek carbon wheels. This is our lightest Madone SL Disc ever. The innovative, fast aero tube design and the lightweight yet affordable 500 Series OCLV Carbon make the 8th generation our lightest Madone SL Disc frame set, making it the ideal bike for challenging climbs. This is what speed looks like today. The revolutionary aerodynamic Full System Foil tube design enhances airflow across the entire bike while keeping weight low for demanding ascents. Additionally, the entire bike's construction has been meticulously refined and extensively tested for even greater speed. 80% more vertical compliance with IsoFlow. To help you pedal with greater power for longer, our updated race-focused comfort technology is now lighter and even more vertically compliant. Rooted in racing, feedback from the fastest sprinters and climbers of Team Lidl-Trek influenced the development of the new Madone SL. Adjustable Aero Cockpit. The narrower top handlebar of the Madone Gen 8, compared to the drop handlebars, allows for a positioning that optimizes either aerodynamics or power on the bike. Furthermore, thanks to the two-piece handlebar/stem design, fit adjustments can be made quickly and easily. Optional aerodynamic water bottles for even more speed. The RSL Aero water bottles and bottle cages, developed alongside the Full System Foil tube shapes of the Madone, enhance the overall system's speed.
