Bikes are meant
to be used.

The Emonda began as Trek’s super-light climbing bike in 2014. For the second iteration, Trek made a disc-brake version lighter and another rim-brake version lighter still. The third generation improved on aerodynamics while keeping the weight feathery. The latest aero-optimized SLR frame weighs under 700g.

Originally a dedicated climber, the Emonda is now the all-purpose race platform, floating the climbs and giving nothing away on the flats. Disc brakes opened up space for wider tires, with 28mm being the max that officially fits.

2023 Trek Émonda SLR Review - A TPC Quick-Take

The Trek Emonda SLR, introduced in 2014 and revised in 2021, is a high-end road race bike renowned for its climbing capabilities and aerodynamic design. This bike offers lightweight agility and aerodynamic efficiency, blurring the lines between road racer and climbing expert. 

Pros

  • Aerodynamics: Enhanced by truncated airfoil profiles, integrated bar, and stem to minimize drag.
  • Lightweight: The complete bicycle in a size 56cm weighs just 14.9 lbs.
  • Ride experience: Exceptionally light and agile, ideal for climbing and acceleration.
  • Advanced geometry: The H1.5 geometry offers aggressive, upright positions.
  • High-quality materials: Uses 800 Series OCLV Carbon for aero profiles without added weight.
  • T47 bottom bracket: Offers ease of maintenance and compatibility with oversized crank spindles.

Cons

  • Price: With a high price tag, it's a significant investment.
  • Limited comfort on rough surfaces: More efficient than comfortable, though this can be mitigated with wider tires.
  • Complex front cockpit: Adjustments in the front cockpit area can be challenging due to the brake hose setup and integrated stem/bar combo.
  • Handling: Requires attention on descents and may not feel as relaxed as more casual bikes.

Bottom Line

The Trek Emonda SLR is a top-tier road bike, excelling in climbing efficiency and aerodynamics. While its price reflects a high-end status, its performance and quality justify the investment for serious cyclists. Its relatively lightweight design and advanced aerodynamics make it a versatile choice, though it might require adjustments for optimal comfort on longer, rougher rides.
