About the Madone SL 6 Gen 8

The Madone SL 6 Gen 8 is a lightweight aero road bike that brings elite racing tech to a lower price point. It offers similar aero benefits to the pricier Madone SLR Gen 8, but with a more economical OCLV 500 Carbon lay-up and two-piece cockpit with hidden cable routing. It's built to race with geometry that keeps you comfortable on the climbs and perched for the attack. A Shimano 105 Di2 electronic group set keeps the price down without sacrificing lightning-fast electronic shifting. Plus, it's topped off with carbon wheels for extra lightweight performance.

The tech you get - An ultra-light OCLV 500 Carbon frame with aero tubing and IsoFlow comfort technology. A 2x12 Shimano 105 Di2 electronic group set that delivers clean shifts thanks to trickle-down tech. Plus, it's topped off with Bontrager Aeolus Elite 35 carbon wheels that come set up tubeless.
