Lightweight and aerodynamic, the Madone SL 5 Gen 8 delivers competitive technology at a great price. It offers a similar aerodynamic advantage to the more expensive Madone SLR Gen 8, but features more economical OCLV 500 carbon and a two-piece cockpit with internal cable routing. Built for racing, it features geometry that promotes speed in sprints while maintaining confidence and control on descents. The Shimano 105 groupset maintains a great price while delivering reliable and precise mechanical shifting.
