New Trek Madone, Trek blog

madone.pngI've been jealously following Neil@ROAD's coverage of the new Trek Madone. Just the other day I was test riding a Specialized Roubaix and now Trek has to go and modernize their lineup a bit with... (drumroll) and sloping downtube! Actually, there's quite a lot that's new with the design. Spinopsys points out the new 90mm bottom bracket. There's also a new seatmast design, a prettier paint job, and various weight-saving improvements that have shaved 250g off the package.

The new lineup will be divided into "Pro Fit", "Performance Fit" (30mm taller head tube for comfort), and "WSD (Women Specific Design) Fit". I can barely afford the entry level Roubaix right now with it's Shimano 105 group, so I'm pretty sure the base-level Ultegra Madone is out of my range.
