The Madone SL 7 Gen 8 is a race-ready bike that offers a lot: Its lightweight frame made from 500 Series OCLV Carbon allows for easy climbing, while its aero geometry reduces air resistance on descents and the IsoFlow technology ensures high long-distance comfort. You'll benefit from an electronic Shimano Ultegra Di2 wireless shifting system for seamless gear changes at any time, while carbon wheels, handlebars, and stem reduce weight and provide outstanding performance. The lightest Madone SL Disc we've ever created, the innovative and fast aero tube design coupled with the lightweight yet affordable 500 Series OCLV Carbon makes the 8th generation our lightest Madone SL Disc frame set to date and the perfect 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 the weight low for tough climbing sections. Furthermore, the construction of the whole bike has been meticulously refined and extensively tested for enhanced speed. 80% more vertically compliant IsoFlow. To allow for longer, more powerful pedaling, our revamped race-focused comfort technology is now lighter and provides even greater vertical flexibility. Rooted in racing, the feedback from the fastest sprinters and climbers of Team Lidl-Trek played a key role in the development of the new Madone SL. Adjustable Aero Cockpit. The upper handlebar of the Madone Gen 8 is narrower compared to the drop bar, allowing for an optimized position on the bike for either aerodynamics or power. 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 holders, developed alongside the Full System Foil tube shapes of the Madone, enhance the overall system's speed.
