The std stem is the right length but only -6° and 120mm long. I have it as low as it will go. The position is very close to the TCR that I have done 30k+ km on and it was copied off the S5 that also has over 30k km.
Should do

It aint light. About 8.5 kg I reckon with mounts and pedals on. Haven't actually weighed it though and it is a L.

Great recommendation, thankyou!biker jk wrote: ↑Fri Jun 14, 2024 7:48 amVery nice. I'm glad you're enjoying it otherwise I would be embarrassed given I have a Reacto and recommend it. My 45mm wheels weigh over 200 grams less, unsurprisingly. I think mine weighs around 8.3kg with pedals and cages but the standard bars which are quite heavy.

New lighter Madone is coming out soon, I like the Trek coloursMr Purple wrote: ↑Fri Jun 14, 2024 10:49 amLooks nice!
I'm having a look at the aero options now. Given what it'll be used for I agree weight really isn't an issue - provided it's under 9kg or so.
I'm even tempted to go 105 DI2 to save some money. Sort of want a Madone because of how outrageous they like.

I don't think it is any faster tham my 2012 Cervelo S5 with zipp 404s in. Better brakes and more comfy with wider tyres. Stupidly tight tyre clearance on the S5. Can't get some 25s in there.
