Trek Emonda SLR Disc - Vapour Coat

Trek Emonda SLR Disc - Vapour Coat

Wakes 1

John loves riding up mountains - especially the Stelvio - and he wanted a light bike with excellent braking in all weathers. He has had a Parlee for a decade and more recently an Alchemy custom frame. He opted for Trek as their huge R&D budget enables them to build the lightest and strongest carbon frames currently avaibale. Surprisingly, given that the Emonda SLR is very light and strong it is also very comfortable due to how the carbon is laid up in the mould. the slim seat stays will cushion the rider and the narrow waisted top tube offers enough flex to reduce any jarring on bumpy roads.

John's trek is a custom Project One farme and painted in Deep Dark Blue Vapour Coat (£1,100.00) he built his bike with SRAM's wireless eTap groupset and used Bontrager's tubeless ready Aeolus XXX4 wheelset (1500g). Handlebars and stem are by Enve Composites.

What our clients say

  • "Rode my standard Box Hill loop this morning with the temp shims and more thought to position. Felt more connected and compact on the bike. Fastest ride of the year, picked up close to a km/per hour despite crappy wet pot holed roads, a ton of traffic and a couple of nights out Thu/Fri."

  • "Very very personalised service. You arrive, they expect you, greet you by first name, have checked your file from past visits and set out very clearly what the process will be, what issues they're looking to address and how and they are happy to take the time to walk you through everything in layman's terms. Almost any professional service entity could learn a lot from how Cyclefit works. "
