Trek Madone SSLx - The New Lance Bike

Over the last six years Trek Bicycles and Lance Armstrong have forged a relationship that not only produced a history-making six Tour de France victories, but also one that pushed the development of cutting-edge bicycle technology to new levels. Lance has not only been our number one source of inspiration, but he's been a great friend and a valuable teammate. For Trek, the 2005 Tour wasn't just our last opportunity to produce something special for The Man's last race. This year's Tour was also another opportunity for us to create the ultimate production road bike for the consumer as well. Racing what we sell has always been Trek's credo.

The 2006 Trek Madone SSLx started out as a production OCLV 55 Carbon Madone SSL, which is already the lightest road bike we've ever produced. Similar to the Madone SL, on occasion we've had to add extra weight to the bikes just to meet the UCI weight regulations. For years, Lance's personal bike building mantra has been a simple one -- "lighter & stiffer." Always lighter and stiffer. These were the two key design parameters attached to the SSLx project.
