TREK EMONDA SL 7 FORCE ETAP AXS DISC ROAD BIKE 2021
Lightweight and aerodynamic, Trek’s Emonda SL 7 Force eTap AXS Disc Road Bike combines these two most desirable attributes seamlessly, using an Ultralight 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame and fork as its basis. Bontrager’s Aeolus Pro 37 OCLV Carbon wheelset continues the theme, being both lightweight for prowess in the hills and aerodynamic for assistance at speed on the flat. The 37mm deep rim won’t be troubled by blustery conditions either and they are tubeless-ready for easy conversion.
SRAM’s groundbreaking 12-speed drivetrain uses smaller chainrings and a 10-33 tooth cassette to provide a wide range of gears whilst also minimising the jumps between ratios so that a comfortable cadence is easier to find, and the fluid-damped Orbit chain management keeps the running smooth and quiet. Wireless, electronic shifting means no need to adjust the gears as the cable wears and gives crisp shifts every time the lever is pressed, no matter how much pressure the drivetrain is under, and connection to the AXS app gives extra configuration options and information about battery charge and usage.
SRAM also supplies the hydraulic disc brakes which balance well with the electronic shifting and offer equally impressive performance with just as little effort, allowing confident control even in damp conditions. Last but very definitely not least, there is a power meter integrated into the chainset, giving precise data from which training sessions or races can be more effectively managed and analysed.
