The Madone SL 6 AXS Gen 8 is a lightweight aero road bike that brings elite racing tech to a lower price point with a more economical OCLV 500 Carbon lay-up than its SLR sibling. A SRAM Rival AXS E1 electronic group set delivers lightning-fast electronic shifting and pairs with alloy handlebars to keep the price down. Plus, it's topped off with carbon wheels for extra lightweight performance.
