Highlights

• Our lightest Madone SL Disc ever: The new fast, aerodynamic profile, combined with lightweight, affordable 500 Series OCLV Carbon, makes our Madone SL Disc Gen 8 frameset the lightest ever, offering an ideal climbing platform.
• Redefining speed: The revolutionary Full System Foil aerodynamic tube profiles improve airflow across the entire bike while maintaining the low weight climbers crave. The entire bike setup has also been meticulously designed and rigorously tested to let every detail deliver maximum speed.
• IsoFlow with 80% more vertical compliance: We have refined our race-focused comfort technology to make it lighter while delivering almost twice the vertical compliance, so you can ride harder for longer.
• Racing roots: Madone SL was created with input from the fastest sprinters and climbers on the Lidl-Trek team.
