Trek Madone 9

Trek Madone 9 Series first ride£9,750.00
Highs: Cuts faster through the wind but without beating you up along the way, fantastic handling, still impressively light
Lows: At least interest rates on second mortgages are still low
Buy if: You want to get there in less time but still want to be able to ride the next day, too

Trek says the new madone's aero shape can save its rider 19 watts of effort over a non-aero bike at 40km/h: trek says the new madone's aero shape can save its rider 19 watts of effort over a non-aero bike at 40km/hThe isospeed 'decoupler' is neatly hidden beneath painted-to-match covers. it might seem gimmicky but it works really, really well: the isospeed 'decoupler' is neatly hidden beneath painted-to-match covers. it might seem gimmicky but it works really, really wellAs expected, trek continues to refine its kammtail virtual foil tube shapes, which feature flat trailing edges that supposedly maintain the aerodynamic benefits of traditional airfoils but with increased stiffness: as expected, trek continues to refine its kammtail virtual foil tube shapes, which feature flat trailing edges that supposedly maintain the aerodynamic benefits of traditional airfoils but with increased stiffnessThe integrated seatmast design allows the centerpull rear brake's cable to travel straight through the top tube: the integrated seatmast design allows the centerpull rear brake's cable to travel straight through the top tubeUnderneath the outer aluminum cover (which also helps reinforce the mechanism), you can see the brake's inner guts at work: underneath the outer aluminum cover (which also helps reinforce the mechanism), you can see the brake's inner guts at workGoing along with the new frame is a dedicated aero carbon cockpit. cables and wires are routed through the bar and stem, and then travel straight into the frame for a sleek outward appearance: going along with the new frame is a dedicated aero carbon cockpit. cables and wires are routed through the bar and stem, and then travel straight into the frame for a sleek outward appearanceWith such proprietary shapes front and rear, standard accessory mounts just won't work well. trek has thankfully incorporated dedicated light, computer, and camera mounts: with such proprietary shapes front and rear, standard accessory mounts just won't work well. trek has thankfully incorporated dedicated light, computer, and camera mountsSince the cables run down alongside the steerer tube and through the upper headset bearing, it'd be a nightmare to raise or lower the stem with conventional spacers. instead, trek cleverly uses split spacers that can be inserted or removed without having to undo everything: since the cables run down alongside the steerer tube and through the upper headset bearing, it'd be a nightmare to raise or lower the stem with conventional spacers. instead, trek cleverly uses split spacers that can be inserted or removed without having to undo everythingThe asymmetrical chainstays only look relatively small because the main tubes are so big: the asymmetrical chainstays only look relatively small because the main tubes are so bigTrek has radically redesigned the 2016 madone, turning it into a full-blown aero road racing machine but yet still compromising little to do so: trek has radically redesigned the 2016 madone, turning it into a full-blown aero road racing machine but yet still compromising little to do so
