Trek Madone 9.5 C H2 Ultegra Di2 Road Bike 2017

Part of Trek's Madone 9 Series range, every component of the Trek Madone 9.5 C H2 Ultegra Di2 Road Bike 2017 has been addressed to provide you with the ultimate in road racing prowess, from the ultra-lightweight frame to a Shimano Ultegra 6870 drivetrain that provides split second shifting and the reliability you need for day-long slogs in the saddle.

Trek’s renowned 600 Series OCLV Carbon frame with KVF (Kammtail Virtual Foil) tube shaping is one of the stiffest carbon layups on the market, producing an incredibly high strength to weight ratio that’s ready to take on anything you throw at it. Madone’s IsoSpeed is what really sets it apart from the competition, though.

The IsoSpeed technology is evident within the rear end and fork of the Madone 9.5 C H2 and as soon as you plant yourself on the saddle, you’ll feel the difference. The rear IsoSpeed decoupler separates the seatmast from the frame, allowing the seatmast to move independently from the rest of the bike, absorbing all the bumps and vibrations the road has to offer.

The rear decoupler is also completely adjustable depending on personal preference and/or what type of ride you’re on. Simply unscrew the lower bottle cage bolt, which determines the compliance of IsoSpeed, and slide the rear of the seatmast up or down. Less compliance is perfect for short, high-intensity efforts in the saddle on smooth roads, whilst more compliance is aimed towards longer rides, such as gran fondos and long days in the saddle.

Used in the fork, IsoSpeed here differs from the system found in the frame. Instead of an IsoSpeed decoupler, the fork has increased vertical compliance to take the brunt of whatever surface you’re riding on.

The Madone 9.5 C H2 Road Bike 2017 has more to it than a frame, and with it being equipped with Shimano Ultegra Di2 6870 components, a wheelset fit for a World Tour rider and a saddle that could power a Paris-Roubaix favourite to the podium without affecting his comfort, the Madone is ready for anything you throw its way.

Trek’s decision to use a Shimano Ultegra Di2 6870 drivetrain definitely fits the Madone 9.5's high specification. It’s reliability is unparalleled, whilst the shifting is so fast and easy on the hands, you’ll be working your way through the gears with ease. The 11-28 cassette offers a huge range of gearing options, wide enough to power you up the climbs and speed down the descents.

Using Vision Metron 40 LTD wheels, Trek have been able to carry on their theme of keeping things ultralight and ultra-strong. Combining these wheels with Bontrager’s R3 Hard-Case Lite 700x25c clincher tyres produces confidence inspired descending and climbing in every weather situation, pushing grip and cornering to the next level.

Finished with a range of Bontrager, race-specific components such as the Bontrager Montrose Pro saddle with carbon rails, a Madone XXX Integrated bar/stem and Madone Micro-adjust carbon seatpost - the Madone truly is a pedigree race machine. A H2 fit is a more ‘all-round’ geometry to suit every rider that prefers long-distances to sprints.
