How many engineering hours did the development of the brakes on the new Madone alone take? Probably more than some manufacturers put into their entire model range. But the brakes are just two of the many details that make the Madone a bike like no other before it. We take it for granted that the frame is aerodynamically optimised. The fact that it is probably also very comfortable, because Trek has integrated the ingenious Isospeed joint between the seat and top tube, which was adopted from the Domane, makes the bike an all-purpose weapon for almost every form of cycling competition.
