Its time to concede that I’m never going to dance up climbs. But someone can. Selling my Trek Emonda SL.
As the middle-child in the Emonda range, this is not the super high end race version; but with a sub-1kg frame weight including an easy-to-use ISP (a particular bug-bear after dealing with spacers on a Look 595), and set up tubeless; this build is under 7kg and rides like it.
I had it re-cabled and a new rear-mech, cassette, chain, bar-tape and cockpit fitted. Frame is in near immaculate condition bar a small patch of wheel rub on the inside of a chain-stay. I think it is the best looking paint job on this model too!
It is the 2019 rim-brake model, so features Bontrager Direct Mount calipers.
Spec is as follows:
2019 Trek Emonda SL, 500 OCLV carbon, 54cm
SRAM Force 22 Groupset
Chainset – 52/36, 172.5mm
Cassette – SRAM PG-1170, 11-30t
Bontrager Speed Stop Pro Direct mount brake calipers, w. Swiss-stop pads
Cyrano R3 stem (120mm) and R3 Chameleon bars (42cm)
Hunt Aero-wide 31mm wheels
Continental 5000TL 28mm tyres
Specialized Toupe 143 saddle
In terms of fit, the bike is a tiny smidge too small for me at 5’11’’. That said, I think the sizing on these is relatively versatile due to what Trek call the H2 fit (apparently means they ride a bit more ‘endurance’ than out and out race bike – not that it felt that way to me).
The bike is in great condition all round, but in complete transparency, has scuffs on both levers – one from a wall, the other from a bike-drop which has also left the front wheel slightly out of true. Frame has been checked by a local mechanic/ ex-racer and is structurally spot-on; though you are more than welcome to view in and confirm. Selling w.out pedals.
The bike is in SE23; feel free to PM me if you’d like any more details or wanted to take a look. I’d like £975 given the new parts; let me know if I’m off the mark with the price.
