The Trek Madone Slr with IsoFlow. It’s formally launched. The refined aero Kammtail form pairs with a flared built-in bar/stem. The body is 300 grams lighter and 20 watts sooner.
As an alternative of air getting soiled between your legs, it flows by way of the downtube and out behind you. Much less mentioned within the dramatic body design is the raised backside bracket space and the way tightly spaced the bottle cages are. The seatpost binder is hidden too.

Just like the IsoSpeed and IsoStrut I anticipate skepticism at first after which, “Oh, yeah it completely works.” Trek isn’t saying how a lot the IsoFlow space flexes, however from the video it’s sufficient to take the sting off a harsh bump. Additionally, until at your thinnest and most energy to weight ratio, placed on Spanx below your management prime bib photographs earlier than swinging a leg excessive tube and grabbing the built-in handlebar.
A Few IsoFlow Notes
- This Madone is barely appropriate with digital drivetrains
- The max tire measurement is 28c
- Brakes are flat mount with a 160mm rotor rear and 140 entrance
- Challenge One customisation is coming at a later date
- T47 BB
- No inner storage or fender mounts
- Appropriate with Trek’s numerous equipment
- IsoFlow will not be adjustable.
A frameset sells for $4599 and builds vary from $7 to $13K.
Lastly, props to Trek for the commercial design of the all-new Madone Slr. I’m not into aero street anymore, however can’t ignore what they’ve delivered to market. That is the bike I predict will get me off gravel, the mountain, and again to street.
