The all-new Emonda SLR and SL maintain their titles as ultimate lightweight race bikes and feature improved aerodynamics, making them faster than ever.
The addition of aerodynamic tube shapes make Emonda faster everywhere. Yes, aero matters for climbing, and the all new Emonda’s aero tube shapes save 18 seconds per hour at an 8% gradient and a staggering 60 seconds per hour on the flat. Traditionally, adding aero tube shapes will make a bike heavier - but not with an all-new OCLV 800 on Emonda SLR.
OCLV 800 is the result of a multi-year process aimed at creating Trek’s strongest and lightest carbon ever. The new material is 30% stronger than anything Trek have ever used before, allowing them to use less material in high-stress areas of the frame. The finished product: a sub-700g frame.

The Emonda SL uses a more cost-effective lightweight 500 series OCLV carbon, making it a great option for the customer who finds the Emonda SLR out of their price range.
The Emonda launches alongside the new Aeolus RSL 37 wheels and Aeolus RSL Bar/Stem Combo, bringing the ultimate balance of weight and aero to the complete system.
Both the Emonda SLR and SL feature the identical frame shapes for identical aerodynamic performance. They both have a T47 BB for the ultimate in performance and serviceability. Cables are almost totally hidden, but still route externally to the bars, making service easy. Lastly, an H1.5 fit means that performance riders of every gender will find a powerful and aerodynamic position on Emonda.
