Thanks man I appreciate the review and now I am full board with my madone

[@wsnx_]

mate your videos are great. there are a lot of road bike youtubers but i think you found your perfect spot. not too personal and more about the bikes, no bullshit talking and it seems like you're really honest with your opinion and you even listen to your community and implement the feedback. i really enjoy your videos and i hope your channel will grow, you deserve it. all the best from germany. PS: i'd love to see a canyon ultimate/aeroad

[@CyclingTom]

Cheers I really appreciate that, I'll get a Canyon Aeroad in the works

[@om1kron]

nice vid as always, straight and to the point!

[@craigryde492]

nice vid tom. that bike looks sick.

[@chineduclarkenwobu7870]

Excellent Drone Shot of the Madone at the End of the Video. Keep it Up* 👍🏼💪🏼

[@krisbowditch827]

The trek madone in factory red racing’s colour ...looks the dogs bollocks, love it 💪💪💪💪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 nice vlog Tom

[@evren1669]

Cool review, I've got a 2022 SL7 on order, thought long and hard before ordering it, but I think it'll be spot on. I'm not a climber and want something focused more for the straights & comfort, so the extra weight doesn't bother me too much. Looks ace as well!

[@joshuahelm5660]

Thanks for your review. I have this 2020 Madone SLR7 except I have the Aeolus XXX 4 wheel set. I am really liking it. I like the IsoSpeed, as it really helps to make the ride stiff and enjoyable. I had the Emonda, and it's very stiff. The Madone is more enjoyable for me to ride. As far as hills, I haven't really noticed too much difference. Undoubtedly there is some on the longer climbs, but it's not too drastic and I make up any time lost on the downhill!

[@zacfrancis8972]

Another bike review with no freehub sound check

[@CyclingTom]

Don't worry it's coming haha

[@FrankJackson]

Thanks for this video!!!

[@brettd1017730]

Like the bike reviews and great seeing all these beautiful machines but would like to see some of bikes more in the general public's price range. Giant TCR pro, Tarmac, Scott foil etc. Keep up the good work.

[@CyclingTom]

Yup definitely going to do some more affordable options soon

[@Barbametal]

Really enjoying your bike review videos, Tom. Keep up the good job. I've got a feeling you were not as excited about the Madone as you were about the other bikes you've reviewed so far. Was it just me or is the Madone not that exciting in real life? Also, have you tried different iso speed adjustments? If so, what did they feel like?

[@Heckerschee]

Great video!

[@okreidieh]

Agreed ... I have the sl version ... Holds the top speed well ... Is fast on rolling terrain .... But it's heavy for sure

[@kelumzi]

Trek is on another level with this one .. class all the way

[@shaunhoulahan4080]

Nice review Tom. I like the look of the Madone but I think they’d be hell to work on.

[@CyclingTom]

They wouldn't be much fun if you had a mechanical group

[@bigdiesel6912]

trek madone always have the best music to match their videos

[@shunzhang838]

In fact the chassis of rim version feels a little soft when climbing or sprinting out of the saddle

[@trevourmcgoon2858]

Very slick rig mate!! Great series, keep it coming.🤑🤠🤓🤓

I like this bike's looks

[@hunterwood6491]

Yo CyclingTom, can you review the S-works venge!!!

[@irreligiousexmuslim8234]

Nice for you

[@M3GRSD]

Came for the bike, but left to download the song in the intro.

[@turbotrainer0137]

[@solon8282]

do a canyon speedmax or sworks shiv pls

[@ovovibes3146]

it looks soooooooooo coooooool !!!!!!!!

[@terryvoss3436]

Would like to see a review of the top end Merida Bikes, Scultura and Reacto.

[@marcuscheung5025]

I have a reacto, its not as good as the Giant tcr

[@Raptors0524]

How would this compare to the Cervélo S5 that you reviewed? Which one would you buy? Which one did you like better? Thanks

[@ethandoesstuff56_68]

you should definitely review a canyon bike

[@rileytully2013]

Review the Orbea Orca

[@archieprichard6579]

Loving the videos, but I think some bikes more around £5000 would be great as they are slightly more affordable about to get my cervelo s3 ultegra di2.

[@CyclingTom]

Yup absolutely

[@lewisobrecht]

what grey colour is this on project one?

[@estorilblu]

Nice bike can you tell me what lights are fitted?

[@arlokkkk]

which one do you prefer? this on or the BMC you did a review on?

[@MrSoyMisto]

How does this bike compare to the SLR01 in terms of stiffness while sprinting? How about comfort?

[@gijoe5508]

I like the drop-bar position, this is always too high. I prefer to have my elbow with 90 degrees and my back flat.

[@ivorwilliams8571]

I would like to see thoughts on the Ridley Noah Fast.

[@krystiankierzek6034]

Maybe some budget bike around 1000-1250 AUD?

[@DavidWilliams-ow9tx]

10k and you don’t even get top tier components. Crazy.

[@marcuscheung5025]

It's 10k NZD

[@Zuttasoxx]

What bike lights are those?

[@davidanderson2706]

I have a Trek Domane SLR and the Iso-speed is great, with tubeless tires you feel nothing!

[@eliudemilioescobedovelazqu705]

nice.

[@gedendetorres3125]

Verynice

[@mrbigglesworth5391]

For 10k that thing better come with cruise control

[@christianretlaw1137]

but the discs are not the genuine ultegra ones , or?

[@icoolman8]

Review the 2020 Roubaix

[@4791_]

I know I can't afford this bike but that front light is sweet. That I can afford. Anybody knows the brand of that front light? I don't like those big heavy ones. I'm a weight weenie. lol

[@miraadi97]

suggestions for indian roads should i get trek Cannondale or some other for bumpy grainy road sometimes and also super highway most of time .for touring type

[@elijahkwon422]

Trek with Isospeed , maybe the Domane with wide tires.

[@CyclingTom]

Maybe look at a Domane or a specialized roubaix with 30mm tires

[@elijahkwon422]

I love the looks of the KMC but it doesn’t last very long and isn’t as fast as shimano chains.

[@adrianwiltshire9563]

The Specialized Venge looks so much better.

[@nathanvansteenberge8474]

Canyon aeroad please

[@christinenarcilla7833]

Trek madone is the best bike!❤️

[@skyscraper5910]

how does stiffness "make up" for weight? that makes no sense. they are 2 completely differnet attributes.

[@fredericom2650]

I agree with you 100%.

[@davianlomboan2397]

Allez Sprint rim/disc please

[@Dralbastaki]

how does it compare to the scott foil?

[@CyclingTom]

Pretty similar bikes honestly

[@arthurreyes2632]

So this bike has negative degree stem but adds spacers and has the angle of the bars turned up? Weird. Nice review though.

[@Gilvids]

Why would a bike cost as much as a car? This is one of those 1million dollar caviar made of edible gold

[@cliffcox7643]

Arent these bikes tanks and very heavy?

[@Bricklinsv1970]

Obviously Hommie has a little Stiffie for that bike lol!

[@bobowiththedodo8155]

Yeah it’s nice but it’s definitely not the stiffest road bike

I swear, everytime I sprint on my madone it feels like someis pushing you from behind

[@pabs3065]

Madone or Foil??? Which do you prefer?

[@CyclingTom]

hmmm Foil but I have a slight bias haha

[@carl481]

2020 Giant TCR or Propel

[@brettd1017730]

+1 on the TCR

[@amarmangaonkar7682]

Why would u buy slr and not buy one with bigass trek logo..??

[@AllIsWellaus]

Phew. Its NZD.

[@bbengineer39]

I like the way you describe the details but it will be a lot easier for me to understanding your UK accent .If you speak a little bit slower :)

Trek is the best company in the world and the madone is the best bike in the world. First company to ever create mountain bikes first company to ever race with carbon fiber bikes. They are light years ahead of all their competition. Trek is the bar
