The revolution has arrived

Advanced Aerodynamics 

For the new Madone, Trek's design team developed all-new KVF (Kammtail Virtual Foil) tube shapes, taking the drag-minimizing truncated airfoil profiles to never-before-seen levels of aerodynamic performance and creating the most refined aero frame and fork designs ever. The virtual tail of the airfoil bends to respond to the angle of crosswinds, significantly reducing drag in the real world. Madone's new KVF-optimized fork increases lateral stiffness for more precise handling along with unique molded carbon dropouts that reduce weight.

Madone IsoSpeed

Trek holds the words "Ultimate Race Bike" in great reverence and understands that such a title is not earned simply by being the most aerodynamic bike in the world. The ultimate race bike has to ride as its moniker would suggest. By pairing an all-new integrated tube-in-tube IsoSpeed decoupler, which allows the inside tube to move independently of the outer aero tube shape, with Madone's advanced aerodynamic design, Trek has created an aero bike that is 57.5% more vertically compliant than its nearest competitor. 

Unprecedented Integration

After leading the cycling industry for years in integrated and connected technologies from seat mast design to wireless communications, the new Madone is another leap towards a more seamless cycling experience. As much a visual journey as it is experiential, the depth to which Trek engineers dove into the design becomes evident at the first glance of Madone's leading edge, the proprietary one-piece Aero Bar/Stem Combo. Fully integrated into the frame, the Bar/Stem is the sleekest, lowest-drag profile ever developed and fully houses all of the cables that currently clutter the cockpit of most race bikes. 

Direct Mount Brakes

Madone's direct-mount brakes are fully integrated into the frame to cut drag, increase speed, save weight, and add to the bike's aggressive aesthetic. This aesthetic is provided by Madone's articulating Vector Wings that enclose the leading cables and front brake caliper in a protective shell. 

Control Center

At the heart of the new Madone is Control Center - cycling's first frame-integrated electronic drivetrain battery port. By designing the frame around emerging cycling technologies, Trek's engineers have provided greater rider accessibility and ease of use while simultaneously keeping Madone at the leading edge of aerodynamics.
