Trek Emonda ALR 5 Road Bike 2019

Trek Emonda ALR 5 Road Bike 2019

With geometry passed down from the top-end Emonda carbon road bikes, the Trek Émonda ALR 5 is well-equipped for both new riders or those thinking about entering their first race. Invisible Weld Technology delivers both increased strength at the tube junctions and a sleek, elegant appearance. Clean lines are further enhanced with the addition of a Bontrager Blendr stem for clutter-free and customisable mounting of computers and lights. Premium-grade Trek 300 Series Aluminium provides the perfect balance of stiffness, for great power transfer, and low weight, for nimble climbing.

Internal cable routing not only enhances the look, but reduces wear-and-tear to keep shifting and braking sharper for longer.

A Shimano 105 groupset features a 50/34 (compact) chainset and an 11-speed, 11-28t cassette, with enough range for dancing up the climbs and yet not spinning out when it comes to big efforts on the flat.

The Bontrager Affinity Tubeless Ready wheels with alloy hubs are stable and reliable and combine with Bontrager R1 Hard-Case Lite 25mm tyres for precise, comfortable riding. The Émonda carbon fork, with a tapered steerer, reduces vibration, improving both comfort and feel, so that your handling isn’t compromised by road buzz.
