Trek Madone SL 5 Gen 8 2026 | Road Bike
Aero Speed Meets Everyday Performance
The 2026 Madone SL 5 Gen 8 is Trek’s most accessible aero road race bike yet, blending top-tier performance with unbeatable value. Drawing inspiration from the flagship SLR models, the SL 5 brings the same race-winning Full System Foil aero shaping and IsoFlow seat tube tech to a more attainable package, using a 500 Series OCLV Carbon lay-up and a smart two-piece alloy cockpit with hidden cable routing.
Engineered for speed, comfort, and efficiency, this Gen 8 Madone comes equipped with a smooth-shifting 12-speed Shimano 105 groupset, lightweight Bontrager Paradigm wheels, and fast-rolling 700x28mm Bontrager R3 tyres. Its race-tuned geometry, integrated aero seatpost, and carbon fork offer responsive handling and a planted ride feel, whether you’re chasing personal bests or leading the bunch. The SL 5 is built to perform but sensibly spec’d to keep the price in check.
