Trek road bikes recently unveiled the 2011 Madone family of road bikes at the dutch port of Rotterdam. Tour de France fans will recognize Rotterdam as the host city for the 2010 Tour de France.
The Madone range family of road bikes includes 4 distinct models of carbon-fibre framed bikes with the Madone 6-series SSL being the top of the line and also become the lightest road frame ever built by Trek.
“At Trek, we’re constantly striving to improve upon every design,” remarked Trek Road and Tri Product Manager Tyler Pilger. “At the start of last year’s Tour, we unveiled a technological milestone for our company, the Madone 6 Series. For 2011, we’ve refined our design and manufacturing process even further. The result is a frame so light we decided to bring back our SSL designation—one we save for bikes that offer truly revolutionary light-weight performance.”
What makes the new SSL frame so light is the usage of OCLV HexSL Carbon. This new carbon exhibits virtually the same stiffness as prior carbons, but delivers more than four times the strength and twice the elongation properties. This new material enabled Trek engineers to remove over 100 grams of weight from the previous Madone 6 Series frame while maintaining the same ride characteristics.
Trek's three Fit Platforms have been giving a new labelling system as well. The new names: H1, H2 and H3 replace the Pro Fit, Performance Fit and WSD Fit options.
Trek further went on to announce their new new Madone 5 Series platform. The new Trek 5 Series Madone is more than 150 grams lighter than the 2010 version. Trek’s 2011 5 Series Madone now incorporates the same technologies as the Madone 6 Series yet providing riders with a best in class value.
In addition to removing a significant amount of weight, Trek’s new Madone 5 Series boasts a 15% increase in front end stiffness and a 43% increase in vertical compliance for the 2011. The Madone 5 Series will be available in 5 different models, including the 5.9, 5.5, 5.2, 5.5 WSD, and the 5.2 WSD.
