TREK Madone SLR6 in Matte Gravel/Gloss Quicksilver

New Timeline with the TREK Madone SLR6 (First Unit of Madone SLR6 to hit the road in Malaysia) Thanks to the helpful team at Treknology Multisport Sdn Bhd and the Trek Ambassadors of Malaysia. 

Featured below with the Astuto Imezi40 Disc specific Wheels laced on the DT Swiss 350 Hubs.







If you are wondering where WebDC manage to get a Wahoo Blendr Mount (which TREK does not have at the moment).. this is a 3D printed Wahoo Blendr mount from Shapeways. Some work needs to be put in which involves sanding the top part of the mount which contacts the head unit as the paint coating that came with the mount was a tad too thick.



Upgraded the Dura Ace Crank, Cassette, Rear & Front Derailleur . Weight in at 8.1kg (Complete bike with Look Keo Blade 2 pedals).




Next would be to lightening the saddle by swapping out the Bontrager Montrose Elite to another saddle. The Montrose Elite is reported to be 220g. With the current predicament of Madone Saddle clamp which does not support 7x9 rails, most Italian saddle like the Astute, Fizik who does not comply with the 7x10 Rail platform are unable to be utilized.

As of 27th July 2018, below is the answer from Trek International Warranty and Technical Support

Hello WebDC,

Thank you for the inquiry. I double checked with our product team, this issue is something they are aware of and are working on. Unfortunately, at this time, we do not have the parts that will accommodate a 7x9mm rail for the Madone SLR. I also do not have an ETA on when such a part would be available.

Cheers,
