With the Domane (pronounced doh-mar-knee), the seat tube attaches at the bottom bracket like normal, but rather than being fixed at the top tube, there's a bearing between the two tubes. The idea is that the seat tube can pivot to a degree, so the saddle can move downwards (and a little backwards), providing more give and adding comfort to the ride.

The carbon Domane provides about 30mm of compliance. If you want to do something similar with aluminium, you need to be careful because when you flex aluminium it will fatigue over time.

For that reason, Trek have made the seat tube by welding two different sections of aluminium with differing characteristics, to determine the amount of vibration damping and compliance. The end result is that the aluminium Domane offers about half the amount of compliance of the carbon version. If you're worried that the aluminium might fail over time, Trek provide a lifetime warranty.

I found that the IsoSpeed Decoupler damped out high frequency vibration to an extent, and it helps to take the edge off bigger hits too – potholes, raised manholes and the like – but having ridden the carbon version last year, I wanted more. Still, you have to remember that this is a £1,200 bike whereas the carbon Domane 4 Series starts at £1,500. Anyway, I'll come back to the whole IsoSpeed system later with a more detailed look at the ride...

Construction & fit

The Domane 2.3, like the £1,000 2.0, is made from Trek's 200 Series Alpha Aluminium, and it's built to what Trek call their 'endurance fit', meaning that it's 'still racy but with a slightly higher head tube'.

To put figures on it, we have the 58cm model here with a 54.8cm seat tube, a 56.7cm effective top tube, and a 19.5cm head tube. That's not a crazy-tall front end but it's pretty high.

For comparison, a 58cm Madone in Trek's H2 fit has an effective top tube that's 0.7cm longer and a head tube that's 0.5cm shorter. In a highly performance-orientated H1 fit, a 58cm Madone's effective top tube is 57.9cm and the head tube is 16cm.

In other words, the Domane's geometry is more relaxed than that of the Madone so you find yourself sitting in a more upright, less stretched out position. I don't like a particularly high front end to my bikes so I took out the headset spacers early on and got myself into a kind of medium position, but you could leave them in if you prefer your bars up high.

While we're on a geometry trip, the Domane has a slacker head angle than the Madone, a longer sweep to the fork and longer chainstays. The result is a significantly extended wheelbase – 1,022mm versus 987mm. That means that the Domane feels considerably more stable. It has a greater bottom bracket drop too, further adding to the stable feel.

Just a couple more figures: the headset is a standard (if there is such a thing these days) 1 1/8in top and bottom while the bottom bracket is Trek's own wide BB86.5 design. It's a press fit system that, unlike a few others we've used lately, remained creak-free throughout testing.

Usefully, as well as SpeedTrap compatibility (where a computer sensor can sit neatly inside the fork leg), Trek provide mudguard mounts front and rear that are hardly noticeable, and you get eyelets for a rear rack too. That makes a lot of sense on a bike that might well get used year round and be pressed into service for Audax and/or commuting.

The spec is based around Shimano's mid-level 105 groupset. The 105ness encompasses the shifters, mechs and the brakes. The only real compromise here is the Shimano R565 compact chainset that's not as light as a 105 version. Most of the rest of the kit comes from Bontrager, Trek's in-house brand.

The IsoSpeed Decoupler certainly does provide compliance – call it 'downward saddle movement' if you don't like the bike brochure jargon. You notice it most over rough roads where the bike smoothes over small bumps, holes and jaggedy bits.

The effect is quite hard to describe. It's not really like mountain bike suspension, or at least it's nothing like the same scale. We're talking about micro-movement here. The feeling is more like having a tyre with a lower than normal pressure in, but without any of the squirming or effects on handling (or risk of pinch flats!). In fact, Trek boast that there are no drawbacks to the Isospeed system. It adds very little weight and there's no impact on frame stiffness.

Trek have included other features to help keep the ride comfortable too. As I mentioned above, the carbon-legged fork has been designed to encourage give at the front end and you get 25mm Bontrager R1 tyres. The low-drop (125mm) Bontrager Race VR-C handlebar comes with Bontrager's thick gel/cork tape and Bonty's Affinity 1 saddle has a whole lot of padding throughout – too much for my taste although, as always with saddles, comfort comes down to personal preference.

The result is a ride that feels just a bit smoother than you get with competitors at this price. I'd like to emphasise 'a bit' here. It's not chalk and cheese, black and white, day and night. You feel like you're riding a bike that's different, but not that different. There are carbon bikes out there that offer more compliance than you get here without the need for an IsoSpeed Decoupler to achieve it.

Aluminium versus carbon

I tried out a carbon Domane last year, albeit for just for one ride, and that was significantly different, both in dealing with high-frequency buzz and with bigger bumps. There was far more movement there. Maybe that's not a fair comparison because the carbon version is more expensive, but if you're sold on the idea of more compliance, do consider the Domane 4 Series seriously.

Of course, it's not quite as easy as that, because the carbon Domanes are more expensive. The cheapest, the 4.0, comes with a Shimano Tiagra build (Shimano's groupset level below 105) and costs £1,500. If you want the same spec as the 2.3 on a carbon Domane, you need the 4.3 that's priced at £1,800 – so you're effectively paying £600 extra for that extra compliance.

Another thing to consider is that the Domane 2.3 isn't the lightest £1,200 bike out there. Ours hit the road.cc Scales of Truth at 9.27kg (20.4lb). We're certainly not saying that weight is everything, but the £1,249 Giant TCR SL2 that we reviewed recently was almost a kilo lighter at 8.35kg (18.4lb).

Our Domane was in no way lethargic but it lacked the spark and energy of some similarly priced bikes when accelerating and climbing. It just needed that little bit more urging on to get up to speed, and I was glad of the compact chainset hooked up to a 12-30-tooth cassette when it came to tackling steep climbs. Lighter wheels would certainly help here, as they usually would. The Bontrager Approved rims on alloy hubs are perfectly sound and they've remained 100% true throughout testing, but they're not especially lightweight.

Good, but not quite the moon on a stick

Don't get the impression that the Domane 2.3 isn't a good bike. There's certainly a lot to recommend it. Trek are right to say that there's no loss of frame rigidity with the IsoSpeed Decoupler, for example. It's a pretty stiff bike at both the head tube and the bottom bracket, even when you get out of the saddle and throw it about.

It's a good level of spec for the money too. Shimano 105 is great stuff both in terms of function and durability – possibly Shimano's best balance – and all of the Bontrager kit is well thought-out too. If I'm being picky – and I am – I'd like lighter wheels... but I want the moon on a stick, me.

So, who should buy the Domane 2.3? Well, I would say that it's not the most manoeuvrable of bikes when riding in a group, and it's not the most reactive, but that's not really what the Domane is about.

It's at its best when you're cruising along, when all that stability I mentioned means it takes care of itself with the minimum of attention. And that decent level of comfort becomes more valuable the longer you're in the saddle, and for that reason it's a good option if you're likely to get in the big miles on long weekend rides, Audaxes or sportives.

Comfortable, stable endurance bike with an innovative design, but not the lightest option out there.

Tell us what the bike is for, and who it's aimed at. What do the manufacturers say about it? How does that compare to your own feelings about the bike?

Trek say, "Domane 2 Series is the world's finest aluminum endurance bike. It features Trek IsoSpeed technology and our innovative endurance geometry for comfort and stability in all conditions."

It's certainly an endurance bike, at it's best for getting in the big miles in reasonable comfort.

Frame and fork

Tell us about the build quality and finish of the frame and fork?

You might be sceptical of the IsoSpeed Decoupler but it does add a degree of compliance - just not as much as you get with the carbon version of this bike.

Tell us about the geometry of the frame and fork?

I've discussed this in the text. Essentially, it's Trek's Endurance Fit which is more relaxed than one of their more race-orientated fits.

How was the bike in terms of height and reach? How did it compare to other bikes of the same stated size?

The reach is shorter than that of an equivalent Madone, and the stack is higher, giving a more relaxed ride position.

Riding the bike

Was the bike comfortable to ride? Tell us how you felt about the ride quality.

Yes, it was comfortable. If you're coming at it expecting tons of bump-gobbling suspension, you're going to be disappointed. Likewise, if you're expecting as much give as you get with a carbon Domane. The IsoSpeed Decoupler gives you just a little more compliance than you would otherwise get.

Did the bike feel stiff in the right places? Did any part of the bike feel too stiff or too flexible?

Yes, it's a clever trick but there's no apparent loss of frame stiffness with the IsoSpeed Decoupler.

How did the bike transfer power? Did it feel efficient?

Was there any toe-clip overlap with the front wheel? If so, was it a problem?

The tiniest amount for me. Not a problem

How would you describe the steering? Was it lively, neutral or unresponsive? Certainly not lively or twitchy. The bike feels very stable.

The drivetrain

Wheels and tyres, your summary.

Did you enjoy riding the bike? Kind of, but it was a bit too sedate for my taste.

Would you consider buying the bike? It wouldn't really suit me.

Would you recommend the bike to a friend? If they were after a comfortable endurance bike

Trek Domane 2.3 review

Aluminium road bike with IsoSpeed decoupler

www.robertsmithphotography.co.uk

While the carbon fibre Trek Domane 4.3 got all the attention when the bike launched last spring, and made the Cycling Plus Bike of the Year top five, an aluminium frame incorporating the same IsoSpeed seat tube decoupler rolled out quietly.

• Highs: Uncannily smooth ride, good value and competitive weight
• Lows: Bar shape not to all tastes; a carbon version isn’t all that more expensive
• Buy if: You’re planning to do big miles at a high pace on cruddy roads

We’ve been very impressed by the IsoSpeed setup, and it works just as well here as on the more expensive models. In some ways it’s more impressive – we’re used to the idea of stiff yet forgiving carbon frames, but IsoSpeed blows the popular perception of ‘harsh’ aluminium frames completely out of the water.

By allowing the seat tube to deflect within the frame, the Domane offers a spectacularly smooth ride, letting you stay in the saddle for longer on broken tarmac or cobbles. In this incarnation there are also 25mm tyres to take out even more vibration.

Visually, the 2.3’s frame isn’t as sleek as that of its carbon siblings. A rectangular top tube and healthily sized down tube deliver confident tracking, though the head tube takes a conventional untapered fork.

While the IsoSpeed fork, with its tapered blades and reverse-offset dropouts, takes out enough road vibration to give a good balance with the back end, a tapered steerer unit would add that extra dash of precision. But given that the Domane’s handling is intentionally on the relaxed side, ultimate steering stiffness isn’t perhaps a prime consideration.

The IsoSpeed decoupler lets the seat tube deflect, for a comfortable ride

The angles are still racy, but laidback racy, ideal for big miles on unpredictable road surfaces – on rough roads a bike that’ll find its own way a little is a boon.

The frame and fork have some neat convenience features hidden away. The fork has a SpeedTrap pocket on the inside of the fork leg, for a wireless computer sensor, while the fork and frame both feature concealed mudguard mounts – easy to ignore if you don’t want them, but there if you do.

Apart from the Shimano 105 transmission and brakes, most of the parts are from Trek’s Bontrager stable. The bar is a slightly unusual shape, with more forward extension from the stem than the usual compact drops and a somewhat tighter curve.

A shorter stem means the reach to the hoods isn’t anything out of the ordinary, but we’re not big fans of the bar shape.

I recently bought a 2013 Trek Madone 54. I bought the bike because a carbon frame bike I recently purchased rear derailer malfunctioned. It damaged the frame. Luckily I purchased it from Performance bikes. I received a full refund. I am close to 60 years old and back in the day I would compete with a Trek 1500 with down shifters. That bike is still in great shape and I used it for the Hotter Hell Hundred ride for years 2012 and 2013. For 2014 I bought the Trek Domane 2.0. The aluminum version of that model. You could ride all day with that bike. It's like an old fasion Cadillac, in the sense once you get going you don't want to stop. I needed something I thought would be faster in order to ride with the Tower racing guys. The Fuji SST 3.0 was my choice and was a great bike. The frame issue i mentioned earlier put me in the market for a new racing type bike. I asked around and all agreed that at my age and weight an expensive carbon bike would be a marginal improvement in speed performance. I felt more comfortable with aluminum and Trek bikes so I was able to find the 2013 model Madone 2.3. I used the bike for the Sub 5 event in Illinois. The bike was great, felt very good all day. I weigh around 205 pounds which I know is huge for cycling. Which means I can only blame myself when I was unable to stick with riding groups. The great thing about the Madone is cornering. I felt very confident taking tight turns. I am writing this in early October 2015 and my goal is to enter more crits in the Cat 5 category and just have fun and be competitive. I feel with the Madone I can do that. Anyway that is the goal.

I really can't think of any. Other reviews mentioned saddle issues. I have been on a lot worse and did not have an issue with the Madone. I realize I bought the bike new 2 years after it came out but I would liked to have bought red color bike. Not a big deal since the bike looks great in black and blue finish.

This is the bike to get if you are looking for a steady performer. I am not worried as much about crashes as I was with the carbon frame bike. The price is very affordable. The bike looks great, rides great and will generate confidence entering corners. I hope this helps

105 components

I have 1800 miles and have had no problems. I purchased new tires and a chain. Never had a flat. The bike has worked flawlessly. (Is that a word) this bike has minimal spokes and coast past any other bike. Great bike

I ran over a deer on highway 84 in the Santa Cruz Mountains

"The Goat" has been some incredible number of thousands of miles and has provided an excellent bike for flying through the mountains. The only thing I recommend is to use Specialized Armadillo tires so you'll never get a flat. I ran over a deer on this bike and didn't crash. Excellent handling.

Great price for a bike with full Shimano 105 components- beats what comes on the 3.1 and 4.5 (brakes, wheels, and cranks).

The aluminum frame doesn't have the coolness factor that the carbon frames do. However, if you nick or scratch the aluminum frame, you can sell it without a problem; I'm not sure you can say the same about a bike with a carbon frame.

I purchased a 2011 Trek 2.3 from Jax Bicycles about a month ago (January 2012) for $1340 OTD with a 3 year Red Shield protection plan. I sold a Trek Madone 4.5 last year, but missed road cycling, so within a few months I was looking for a replacement. I went back and forth between the 2.3 and 3.1 (the 4.5 was no longer in my price range) and decided on the 2.3 after I hung the 2.3 and 3.1 on a scale at the bike shop. Both bikes were 56cm and weighed the same (19.3 lbs without pedals). With pedals and two water bottle cages, my 2.3 weighs approximately 20.3 lbs. I threw on some "free" Race X lite wheels and got it down to 19.3 lbs. I am impressed with the ride quality and have not noticed the difference between the carbon and aluminum frames, even when riding with the stock wheels. I do, however, notice improved braking performance and feel with the 2.3 (105 brakes) over the 3.1 and 4.5 brakes. If you are looking to save weight by going with a carbon frame, you'll probably have to start shopping in the Madone 5-series, which will include better components, before you see a noticeable difference. Although, it is going to come with a much higher price tag.

Light, strong, quick.

While the carbon fork and stays soften the ride, it's not as comfortable a ride as my old steel bike. However, it's much more maneuverable and, of course, lighter.

This was a gift from my brother-in-law, who upgraded to a carbon bike. This has been a great bike for me -- 6'2", 250 -- as I work on getting back in shape. It's quick, comfortable, and strong. Not built for the Tour de France, but a great training/recreational bike for the above-average cyclist.

Trek 800 MTB, Panasonic DX-3000

high quality frame, components.

compact gearing can spin out going downhill, standard seat, wheels and brakes not that great.

Trek 2.3, carbon stays, compact gearing, really has been a fantastic bike. Very stable, nice geometry, light and fast. Waited 2 yrs and 2K+ miles to review it. This is a great training bike. I have ridden a CAAD9 and this is similar, but w/a better ride.

Geometry balances comfort, stability, and handling well Pretty Reliable (I hope, anyway, because this bike will need to last several years!) Price-Past this price point, it's diminishing returns from any brand. For a noticeably better bike, you'd have to spend $700-1000 more, which in my household was better spent on a double Chariot trailer.

Look closely - seat & tires will need replacing. If you race at all, you might add wheels & brakes to the upgrade list. I know that's hypocritical after extolling the price, though. Bumpy roads=bumpy ride Not aero or ultralight or super flashy, so if you ride with dentists & trust fund babies, you'll need to swallow your pride.

With 1000 km on the bike, we're starting to get to know eachother. Nice light bike for rec riding at a good price. Stiff, solid comfortable ride feel. The lowish BB height, tall head tube & medium wheelbase make it easy to stay upright and moving forward, comfortable at any location on the handlebar, but you are aware of the bumps in the road. All components reliable so far, no loss in performance in the rain. Brakes could use centering adjustment screw but have decent power, seat brought back memories of the plastic bmx seat I had 25 years ago (not a good thing!), tires are low quality and 25mm, not 23mm, but work fine for now. I know the B-brand "race" wheels aren't the sexiest, but work well and I feel faster with bladed spokes. LOVING compact cranks, for all the quirks that go with them. Often requires simultaneous front and rear shifting to get into the right gear, but it's nice to have such a huge range w/o the trim issues of a triple. Impressed so far with 105 components.

The aluminum frame with the carbon fork and stays seems to absorb vibration. It rides solid. Shifting is very smooth. The 105 shifters work very well with the ultegra derailer. You can move through the gears quickly without missing a beat. I previously had a 105 derailer and it constantly needed adjusted and the chain would hop off a lot. Not this set up. Climbing is a breeze with the compact cassette. The gearing seems to go down lower than the triple I had previously. The crankset is very quiet. I love the bike.

Bontrager seat is not a soft ride. I will probably upgrade at some point. The white handlebar tape will have to go. I have only had the bike going on two months so I want to see how the Bontrager race lite tires do over time. Going down large hills, pedaling with the high gears does not keep up at high speeds like the triple did. The name Bontrager is seen on the bike a lot more than the Trek name.

I moved up from the Trek 1200, triple , to a 2008 Trek 2.3. I absolutely love it. I have a compact cassette and have left all other stock components on for now. The bike is very smooth on the road. Shifting with the 105 shifters and the Ultegra derailer are very clean. You do have to watch for the front wheel overlap on slow, sharp turns with clipless pedals. It handles steady going down hills. I have had it to about 33 mph and it has been solid. It has been a gem going up steep hills. It climbs very well. I have been riding for 20 years and this is probably your best bet before jumping into all carbon, racing bicycles.

Trek 1200, triple ring.

This is my first true road bike, so it's hard to compare this to another brand, but I can say that after a year I'm very happy with the bike. I originally wanted a cheaper bike (since this was just an excercise thing for me), but luckily I was talked into this one. I think this bike is the bare minimum in terms of road bikes that you won't quickly outgrow. If you go a level down you'll end up with thumb shifters and other lame components. If you go a level up, the bike and components just get lighter and stiffer, but no more functional. As far as the price goes, since I bought this I've seen other brands with similar components for a little less money (Giant, Novarro, etc..) but I still don't feel ripped off by any means. Supposedly the way Trek forms the frame tubes adds to the cost, and they do a lot of R&D on the frame angles and such, but it's hard for me to say whether that's worth the brand premium. I can say that my bike hardly ever needs a tuneup and feels as solid as the day I bought it.

I have the compact double so shifting is crisp and sure in the front. The bike seams very steady at high speeds and through corners. I've had the bike up to about 38 mph so far and it seems solid, steady, capable and wanting to go faster. The breaks provide good stoping ability. The 10 speed cassette allows for excellent close grear rations, but the compromise is that you need a lot of strength up big hills. The finish quality on the components is high.

Break pads that come on the bike are terrible. The color/paint on the vinyl seat is rubbing off. Mine is a 2007 model and I think the white/silver/red color scheme is boring. The white handle bar tape will look dirty in a short amount of time.

The bike rides like a dream. Fast on the flats and like a rocket down hills. Handling is great but watch out of for toe overlap on the front wheel. The wheels are an upgrade over the 2.1 and seem to be worth the extra money. Shifting is fast and accurate. The bike seems responsive to my pedal strokes, expecially when climbing. I've had no issues with the seat like many reviewers. The aluminum frame seems stiff and the carbon fork seems to dampen much of the road vibration. The Bongrager race tires provide what seems to be good traction. The the fit/finish and paint are excellent. The low count, bladed spoke wheels are light and durable.

The Trek Domane is an endurance road bike that can do it all — road race, commute, super-long rides, and even light gravel. Trek designed the bike frame's IsoSpeed Decoupler system to offer enough compliance for comfort, while maintaining pedaling efficiency. Here's your guide to the Domane line.

Written by: Micah Ling

Posted in: Guides

The Trek Domane is a classic example of an endurance road bike : It can do it all. You can hop in a road race with it, commute on it, take it for your long ride, and even venture onto gravel with it. Endurance road bikes are built to perform, but also to be comfortable.

What Trek Domane is right for you?

History of the Domane

The first-generation Trek Domane. 2016-2019 Domane -Addition of a front IsoSpeed decoupler to decouple the steerer tube from the head tube and further reduce vibrations -New slider introduced on Domane SLR models that allows riders to adjust the level of damping offered by the rear IsoSpeed -Disc version allows 32mm tire clearance 2020+ Domane -More aerodynamic frame -Even more tire clearance added, up to 38mm -Hidden Storage compartment in the down tube

The latest Domane design packs in aero, comfort, and storage features.

Different builds

Here are a few of our favorite Domane builds from Trek that we’ve seen at TPC.

Trek Domane 5.2 Compact Road Bike - 2013

Trek designed the Domane to absorb bumps but also sustain speed. Its IsoSpeed decoupler improves comfort without sacrificing power transfer. This system separates the seat tube from the top tube so that it can flex freely. The compliance helps the bike isolate the rider from bumps and vibration. At the front, Trek designed an IsoSpeed fork that used more rake and a reversed dropout. A carbon IsoZone handlebar featured closed-cell foam pads in the top and drops of the handlebar, to mute the jarring of cobbled roads.

Trek Domane 5.9 Road Bike - 2016

Trek Domane SLR 6 Disc Road Bike - 2017

To further improve vibration reduction, an IsoCore handlebar was added. It includes a layer of rubber inside the carbon fiber. Tire clearance gets bumped up from 25mm to 28mm on the rim brake version, and 32mm on the disc brake model. On high-end models like the SLR 8, there’s also an upgrade to electronic shifting and a removable panel in the down tube for the Shimano Di2 battery.

Domane SL5 - 2020

With the newest models of the Domane, the top tube IsoSpeed on high-end SLR models has been improved. It is tunable and offers a finer balance between stiffness and comfort. It uses a repositioned slider under the top tube and an additional elastomer integrated into the design to offer more damping (SL models retain the original non-adjustable IsoSpeed system). The tube shapes have all been tweaked, borrowing technology from Trek’s more race focused road bikes to improve aerodynamics. The new Domane offers more tire clearance and can fit up to 38mm tires. The Hidden Storage compartment in the down tube provides a discrete space on the bike to store spare tubes, tools, and snacks.

If you’re looking for a versatile bike, the smooth ride, predictable handling, and upright riding position make the Domane perfect for both a new cyclist looking to push their mileage, and a seasoned racer, interested in rougher roads. The IsoSpeed technology reduces muscle fatigue and joint stress by absorbing vibrations from varied terrain, making it ideal for someone who truly wants to explore. Generally, if you want disc brakes, look at 2015 models and newer. Trek offered the Domane with rim brakes from 2013 to 2019. From 2020 onward, the new generation Domane will only be available with disc brakes. If you want electronic shifting , look for 2017 and newer. And if you want clearance for tires as wide as 38mm, or aero features, look at the 2020 and 2021 models.

Trek 2014 Models

Trek has launched its 2014 series road bikes. The most remarkable improvement in the new Trek road bikes is the strong specs on the entry-level 1 Series. Now all Trek 1 series frames have a carbon fork, including the 1.1. There are also improvements across the Madone and Domane lines, i.e. the frames of the Madone 4 Series are aero now.

Trek has announced that, from now on, they won’t do annual updates, instead they’ll release bikes as soon as they are developed and produced. They called this “Apple approach”: Trek UK marketing manager Chris Garrison said that “We are taking more of the Apple approach. When the iPhone 5 is ready, it’s ready, and it goes on sale. But you can still buy an iPhone 4 if that’s your thing.”

Trek 2014 collection: Race Performance Series

Madone 7 series.

Madone 7 is the highest level road bike that Trek produces, hand-built from OCLV Carbon in Waterloo, Wisconsin, USA. The Madone 7 Team edition, pictured above, has been used by the UCI Pro team RadioShack-Leopard at the Tour de France 2013 and took a stage win with Jan Bakelants.

It is equipped with Shimano Dura-Ace 9070 Di2 11-speed drivetrain, Bontrager Aeolus 5 clincher wheels with Bontrager R4 Black tires. Madone 7 is coming with 10 different builds, but the specifications, like all Trek models, are highly customizable, you can build your own bike at the Trek cycles website.

The US price of the Trek Madone 7 2014 Team edition is $12,421.48 (on the Trek US page).

Madone 6 Series

Madone 6 is also hand-built from OCLV Carbon in Waterloo, Wisconsin, USA. You can choose H1 or H2 geometry. The biggest difference is in the length of the head tube. With the H1 fit, it’s 16cm on a 58cm frame; with the H2 fit, it’s 19cm. In H2 geometry, the top tube is also a bit shorter and just a touch steeper head angle. That means your ride position is a little more upright to take the strain off your back and neck, without the need to use a stack of flexing spacers. The H2 setup is still performance-orientated, but it’s a bit more relaxed.

The Madone 6.2, pictured above, is coming with Ultegra 6800 groupset, Bontrager Race Light TLR wheels with Bontrager R3 Black tires. The price of this build is $4,897.19 (on Trek US page). 8 different builds are available.

Specifications of 3.1 are: 300 Series OCLV Carbon frame, Shimano 105 10-speed compact drivetrain, Bontrager Approved alloy rims, and Bontrager R1 700x23c tires. US Price: $2,099.99.

Trek 2014 collection: Sport Series

Domane 2 series.

Domane 2 is the aluminum version of Trek’s endurance road bike. Like all Domane series, Domane 2 also features Trek IsoSpeed technology. Two different builds are available: Domane 2.3 and Domane 2.0.

It’s a chopped-off square at the back in a similar way to the KVF tubing that Trek use on their Madone and Speed Concept bikes. Three different 1 series are available: 1.5 (pictured above, US price is $1,349.99), 1.2 (US price is $999.99) and 1.1 (US price is $799.99).
