Digital Up Magazine DigitalUPMagazine.com Trek Emonda SLR 10 This bike weighs only 10.25 pounds. Yet, this only tells part of the story. The ride quality is like nothing you’ve ever experienced. Trek’s heralded OCLV carbon provides smoothness and stiffness at the same time. That ’feel’... it has to be ridden to be believed. $14,999.99 The geometry is modeled using direct feedback from racers, with handling both pros and amateurs crave. Emonda SLR 10 is aggressive yet stable, quick yet confident. Lightness is achieved with a careful selection of parts. The Tune wheels, seen under Tour de France winners, are 25mm deep tubulars that weigh 825 grams. That’s for the pair! The Bontrager bar/ stem combo saves 75 grams over a traditional setup, yet retains stiffness. A full carbon saddle, ceramic bearings, and Jagwire housing further reduce grams. Even the brakes are custom Bontys, super light yet super powerful. Shifting duty is handled by SRAM RED 11-speed. The Emonda SLR 10 is the pinnacle of lightweight, no-compromise performance. This changes everything! Are you ready? DigitalUP [ 45 ]
