2022 Trek Emonda SL5 Carbon Road Bike Bicycle Shimano 105 Hydrodisc 56cm

Prelude: This bike has very few miles on it with the middle seams on the original tires still visible. There are no scratches or paint chips and all comp 1 nts are like new, similar to a shop demo model. Trek has made its name in cycling history as the company that propelled Lance Armstrong to every 1 of his numerous cycling exploits. The trifecta Mad 1, Domane, and Emonda are anagrams of each other, completing a trio of Treks high performance road bikes each designed to specialize at a certain type of road riding. The Emonda was designed to be Treks liveliest bike; the climbing specialist, it transfers every ounce from every pedal stroke into bursts of power up the steepest of inclines while making the lesser 1 s disappear into flats. Here is a 2022 Trek Emonda SL 5 Disc full frameset built with a 2 x 11 speed Shimano 105 R 7020 hydraulic disc groupset rolling on Bontrager Affinity tubeless capable thru-axle wheels wrapped in French puncture-resistant Bontrager R 1 Hard-Case Lite 700 c tires. All cabling is routed internally straight through the spacers under the stem to provide aerodynamic cleanliness and a clean grip anywhere you need on the main tubes of the frame when lifting the bike. It is a size 56 cm and Id expect a rider of around 58-62 to fit this bike depending on personal preference, body proportions and configuration of parts. This is a competitors road bike known in the world of cycling for turning quad-wrecking mountain assaults into actually enjoyable exercise. Shifts are silent and precise and wheels roll smooth and true; hydraulic disc brakes stop on a dime. The bike is in excellent cosmetic condition and perfect functional condition. Needs no maintenance, everything working perfectly. This bike carried an original MSRP of $3,249 plus tax, which is $3,509. Get this 3 year old bike for basically half at just $1,900 fully tuned up, looking fantastic and riding like new!

Video Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbkUBdJaT 6 s Professional Review: https://road.cc/content/review/trek-emonda-sl-5-disc-291965 Trek launched this latest Émonda design last year, giving what has always been considered its lightw 8 climbing machine an aerodynamic makeover that takes it into what I consider quality all-rounder territory. From a ride point of view, I cant fault it. Its firmer than a lot of carbon bikes on the market, and I kind of like that. Getting smashed about isnt fun, but neither is a bike that mutes all the signals from the road below. The Émonda balances this well. There is no harshness, though; its well within the limits of comfort for a race bike, and that gives it its eagerness, its attitude if you like. If you ride it hard, you get rewards. Stand hard on the pedals for a climb or sprint and the bike feels tight everywhere, although most notably around the bottom bracket area. There is no flex anywhere, and it just eggs you on to keep hammering away when your legs are screaming to ease up. On the downhills I found I could let the Émonda go even when the road surface was less than perfect. It just feels really planted, and coupled with that firm frame passing through loads of feedback from the tyres, I left me feeling perfectly in tune with it. Trek just nailed it, even though I didnt know what was around the next corner. With less caution than I probably should use, I could throw the Émonda through the bends while constantly making little tweaks to my position to line it up for the next 1. The gear shifting is precise and works well even under load – especially at the chainset – and the feel at the lever is practically the same as Ultegra R 8000. Stopping power is great, as is the modulation and control. The steering is on the fun side of neutral, and allows you to just point the handlebar and aim for the apex. The Émonda is also very responsive to slight changes in body position if you need to tweak your line or get yourself out of trouble. I found this out when riding somewhere I had never ridden before – a descent which was easily 40 mph+ in sections. The SL 5 is also a quality mile muncher. The firm ride didnt seem to fatigue my joints any so 1 r than normal, and although the position is racy, it isnt extreme either. I could ride on the hoods for hours without discomfort and made good use of the shallow drops too. Im in Decatur near Emory/Toco Hills but pickup is also possible in Doraville during work hours.
