Trek Emonda SL6 - 2023, 56 cm

The Trek Émonda SL6 is a lightweight, race-ready road bike that blends speed, climbing prowess, and all-day comfort—ideal for serious road cyclists and competitive riders. Originally priced at $5,499, this 2023/24 model weighs in at just 17 lbs, making it an excellent climber with aerodynamic advantages.

The Trek carbon frame and fork deliver stiffness and compliance, while the bike’s geometry supports aggressive performance and responsive handling. The build features a full Shimano Ultegra 2x11 groupset, with 52/36 chainrings and an 11/30 cassette—perfect for spirited group rides, long climbs, and weekend races.

Shifting is crisp and efficient with Ultegra front and rear derailleurs, and the Ultegra 172.5mm crankset offers smooth power transfer. The Bontrager Aeolus Elite 35 carbon wheels add aerodynamic performance and are tubeless-ready, wrapped in Bontrager R2 23C tires.

With only 100 to 300 miles of gentle use, this Émonda SL6 is barely broken in. Finishing touches include Bontrager Elite handlebars, a carbon Bontrager seat post, and a Bontrager Aeolus saddle for added comfort and sleek aesthetics. Sized for riders approximately 5’9” to 6’0”, it’s a premium setup for anyone seeking top-tier performance without going fully custom or electronic.
