Trek Émonda SL 6

Émonda SL 6 hits the sweet spot of value and performance in a carbon road bike. It has an ultra light OCLV Carbon frameset, a high-end Ultegra drivetrain, and a quality wheel set – all at an exceptional price. It's a race-worthy climbing hero, and a serious option for a wide range of roadies.

It's right for you if...
You want the lightweight advantage on big climbs and long rides, and you want a performance return on every pedal stroke. You value ride quality and confidence in handling, and want a fast ride that's as well-suited to climbing as descending.

The tech you get
Lightweight parts to match the lightweight frame. Émonda SL 6 has a 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame, a Shimano Ultegra 11-speed drivetrain, powerful Bontrager Speed Stop direct-mount brakes and Paradigm Tubeless Ready wheels.

The final word
Racers, weekend warriors, and new roadies who put a premium on quality will all appreciate the super-light frame and performance drivetrain. Émonda SL 6 is a high-performance ride without the high-performance price tag.
