Trek announced a few updates to its world-class race machine, the Madone SL is swapping to a more widely appreciated BB47 bottom bracket
Jul 2020 · Sam Challis
Trek says the ‘OCLV 800’ carbon fibre layup saves its Madone SLR frameset 80g without affecting stiffness or aerodynamics
Jul 2020 · Dan Cavallari
OCLV 800 launched with Trek's feathery Émonda, but now the brand's flagship aero bike gets this lighter, stiffer carbon — along with a T47 BB.
Mar 2020 · Warren Rossiter
Trek with the unique design of the Madone and its IsoSpeed back-end means it doesn’t have to drop the stays for comfort or minimise the size of the stays for flex because IsoSpeed isolates the seat tube from the stays and top tube.. .
Awesome ride
Racy handling
A bit weighty
Dec 2019 · Symon Lewis
Cycling Weekly has shown that the Trek Madone is one of the fastest aero bikes available today, but has the update with discs made it even better? I certainly think so

Seriously fast aero race bike with great handling, but not the smoothest and not the ultimate spec it should be
Apr 2019 · Benjamin Topf
The Trek Madone SLR 9 Disc with its IsoSpeed has already won our aero-bike group test. But is the all-round performance of the Madone good enough?
Integration
Rear-end comfort with adjustable IsoSpeed damping
High-speed performance
Front-end could provide more comfort
Compact cranks only work up to 50 km/h 😉

It might look the same on the outside, but underneath it's an all new Madone
