Not sure why people are comparing this to an Emonda and complaining about the weight. The whole purpose of the Emonda is to be a super light climber. The purpose of the Domane is to be a good longer distance endurance bike. If you are trying to decide between those two bikes, then you haven't figured out what kind of rider you are. I've own two Domanes (and would love this new model), but I mostly ride centuries and double centuries. I would never ride an Emonda on a double. 18 lbs is not heavy for this type of bike.
Bryan Lewis comparing to roubaix, it’s heavy
@@user-ur5tc4bf3j The BikeRumor review I just read for the 2019 Roubaix put a size 52 at 18.1lbs (w/ Force eTap). Seems pretty similar. If weight means a lot, then the Domane is not the perfect bike for your needs. Hell, I run a 400g leather saddle because I prefer comfort over weight.
Its not the comparison to an emonda, its that its the SLR with DI2 is north of 7,500$ and for that kind of money you'd expect lighter. however, I understand its hard to get there with Disc + the heavier frameset.
At 8.34kg (as stated in the video), this does seem heavy for such a high spec bike. My 2018 (I think) Domane SLR6 weighs about 7.5kg, although it is the rim break version, which I went for because it was lighter and to save a bit of cash. I can't believe a disc brake setup is so much heavier!
I have an Emonda and yea, when you hit mile 80, on ok roads it beats you up. Just loose 2-3 pounds and your right back on track. Deff looking at this bike!
In 10 days I get my SLR7. Yes there are lighter bikes, less expensive ones, but few if any more comfortable for medium to longer journeys. Being on the wrong side of 70 I truly appreciate that.
have fun.
Jamesthebikeguy if I have too much fun I may not stay upright. It’s been difficult enough to learn going clippless. Last time I’d really biked having cages on my old Bottechia was all I had to master. Now doing 100+ miles a week is more than enough.
Beautiful bike. I am waiting for my one. It will be in Segafredo red with the carbon arvada saddle, ceramic speed bottom bracket and xxx stem.Can't wait :)
Sounds like an amazing bike
@Steve King yes it's got wheels gravel capable with room for 38 mm tires
You will not be disappointed and worth the wait!
Couldn't afford this, so I "settled" with 2020 SL 6. Still a beautiful & awesome bike!!!
Comfort level makes your long rides much more fun!!!
Thanks for helpful video and keep them coming please!!
I'm in the same boat. Did u test ride both? Any regret not going with SLR instead?
After 2 years of owning a 2020 SL7 Domane, I absolutely love it despite it being a little heavy. I personally couldn't justify the large price jump to save 200 grams to get the SLR version, I opted to use that money for a lighter wheel set instead. When I get done riding, my legs might hurt but the rest of my body doesn't feel 'bludgeoned' like it used to when riding a race bike over lumpy Wisconsin roads
Sounds awesome, keep having fun!
Nice review. Almost 19lbs with no pedals!!! That’s concerning for a costly high end bike. Sounds like plush comfort can be heavy. I have an older gen Domane with Ultegra DI2 and it’s no where near 19lbs, right around 17lbs with pedals. But I have more conventional sized tires and Mavic wheels and rim brakes which are lighter than discs. This Domane could probably lose a few pounds with a different Project Build spec and still be fairly comfy but not as plush as this stock spec. Ride On!
Great review. SLR 7 is a Fantastic bike... I own a 2019 Domane SLR 6. A superb and comfortable bike.
Couldn't agree more!
Thank you for the review!!
Thank you for watching.
Good review. I have the 2018 version of this bike. It’s an ok bike. It never gets the credit it deserves. Rides like a champion. It’s great for long rides. For short rides I use my emonda. That’s my 2 cents.
Well said!
Great videos man. Thank you for making them. You found a niche. No one is taking the time to put these bikes on a scale. It is appreciated.
Is it possible that you not hold the scale ?
It looks like the numbers keep changing on the screen of the digital scale.
I dont have another way to hold it. It does move around but we get to within a 1/10th. I retake my shots until what I say matches with what the scale finally settles on. Otherwise you would be sitting there watching the darn thing hunt for a while.
Well done - oops, need a napkin . . . .droolin' over here . . . .
Right?
Nice review. The bike has some nice features. Makes me wander what they have in store for the Edmonds. Also, makes me want to try some 30mm tires on my Emonda.
@Firsthgyhgyhuy Lastujhujhuj Isn't that just a tractor with a big dildo on the front?
I think he's just wants road comfort - your suggestion might put the willie's up him😱
BEAUTIFUL Bike, I have a FX3 and will be upgrading to a Trek Domane
Sick, nice!
Forgive my ignorance, but what does “compliance” refer?
Great looking bike with trick features, but way out of my skill set and price range.
Thanks for the review!
How much the frame flexes for and aft, to dampen bumps in the road for comfort
It would be nice to see a video of the 2020 Émonda ALR 4 Disc. Either way, great video
If I come across one.
Really nice review Jim.
Thanks for watching!
How would you compare this practically with the sl6. In other is the doubling on the price worth it?
"Worth it" is subjective, but my path was to buy a non-SLR model and reduce it's weight through lighter wheels, saddle, and various other parts. I use the stock wheel set for CX riding and the new wheel set for road.
Trying to decide between this and the Émonda. I am a talented climber but I do end up getting uncomfortable when doing long rides on rough tarmac. I have a 2015 Trek one series rn
My trick is two different stem setups. I’ve got a 130mm 10-degree stem for my normal rides on a 2010 Felt F1 (very light rim-brake bike with very aggressive geometry.) I went with a flipped 100mm, 10-degree stem for the 207 mile Seattle to Portland ride. I tilted the bars up a bit too, which looks really geeky. So much more comfortable with the short, tall bars! But definitely faster when long and low. Like two bikes in one - and both weigh 16 lbs - with pedals.
But the Domane would be nice too. With 38c tires, it would do gravel well. 28 or 30c tires for crummy, rural pavement. Discs for wet weather - plus mud-guards/fenders. Seems like a nice ride when the roads and weather aren’t ideal. The Emonda, like my F1, would be best on smooth, dry roads.
interesting I have a 2017 SLR with dura ace di2 and 600oclv and weighs three pounds less. I spec'd out a domane SLR9 and it's still 2 lbs heavier than my 2017. Interesting how with better tech the weight can still be heavier overall.
You kept saying "going to be". Was this a pre-production bike? Is the production bike spec any different?
This is a standard bike I borrowed from the local bike shop
Nice review though.
I am thinking about buying a second hand slr7 from 2020., The same as this one.
The price is around 4500 $, in very nice condition.
I was just wondering, since it is size 60 cm, and according to Trek, it's for riders that are 180-190, would it be small if I am 193 and long legs?
Thanks 😊
Nice review but you might have given the price range as well as maybe compare it to other similarly equipped endurance type bikes.
Thanks for watching
Agreed - bike reviewers regularly leave out *the price* which is an important characteristic of the product!
I saw another video where a pro bought a 56 and he was 6'-1". On the size table he should have a 58. Being the same height, I was wondering why the pro picked a smaller bike frame? I would love to own this....
Would like to see a review on the SRAM Force pls
if i fit a 38c tires
will it be good in bad roads full of potholes ??
Itl be a dream on bad roads
As long as you bring the psi down
Amazing bike.
Sure is! I can't wait to see the SL version, as that will have the tech and value
any reviews on 2020 domain sl6? Would like to see one!
+1
+2
+3
nice review but the flipped stem looks horrible
Meh, looks fine to me.
Jamesthebikeguy obviously the stem is meant to be the other way round the bike stem is not designed to be put that way otherwise the product designers would have designed it like that in the first place. But like I said it was still a good review thank you.
Gorgeous bike. Too bad Trek puts the Di2 only on bikes that are 5K plus. The Roubaix gets it on their comp model for $4400 however not with carbon wheels. Can you review the Canyon Endurace?
True, I think Trek just tries to simplify their line up.
What do you think about Domane SL 7 with e-tap SRAM? Any better?
Different flavors. It's worth messing around with Di2 and eTap to see what works best for you
great review! what size is the frame in the video?
looks like 56
@@writejoenow Would that fit a 6' like Bridgewood stated.
@@kentlunski4421 a 6' rider? possibly. you should really get a bike fit or at a minimum try to ride the frame you would like. if you have never ridden a road bike before, this is a nice one to get as it has a relaxed geometry. but don't buy the bike at X size because you are X feet tall. it depends on flexibility and inseam and arm length and a whole bunch of other factors. good luck!
Any websites I can save money on my new future bike (also I know winter is coming any big discounts) please help
Check with your local bike shop
Hi James, just came back from the bike store where I ordered a Domane SL7. This bike also comes with the Aeolus 3V. The only thing is, I ordered Continental gp5000 tires with them in size 28mm. Do you think this gives problems, them being a bit smaller than the standard included 32mm? Thanks in advance.
28s will works great. For my own curiosity why change the tires?
Jamesthebikeguy as I’m going to ride this bike on the road only, I thought 32mm would be to wide/heavy and therefore slower. I could be wrong though. Haven’t tried them myself yet. Many thanks for your reply!
TheBuddhaBilly Hi Buddha, how so you like it now after a couple of months?
@@TheBuddhaBilly mine has 32. No complaints here. For an endurance bike I think it’s a good fit.
Test road domane slr 7 today. Thing rides like a dream. The pricetag is insane ...😭
Tell me about it
Caroline, I totally agree with you about the pricetag. I bought one and went with an optional paint color. Been riding it since February. My out the door cost was $10K. But as with anything else, you get what you pay for.
Can that wheelset take 28mm tyres?
Check with Bontrager or your local bike shop.
Great video, awesome bike did I miss the price as tested? Also the frame looks like a size 56 the taller geometry might be throwing me off though.
58cm. Check the price with your local Trek dealer
Does anyone like the wider handlebar setup on the 2020 Domane? A 42mm on a 56 is just too wide for me. Feels wrong. Anyone else?
Seems about right, though handlebars are always a fit point.
Love this bike. I ride a 60 cm with the Aero Road 44cm. Seems perfect for me.
After many more miles and at higher speeds. I WAS WRONG. Trek got it right. I took it to my local shop and they refined the RETUL fit I had for a previous generation. The numbers were close, but there was a difference. The wider setup makes the bike feel even more grounded at sustained speeds. After many, many road bikes over the years, this is by far the best bike i've ever owned.
@jamesthebikeguy what do you think of the Domane force Etap 2020
Love it.
@@Jamesthebikeguy have you done a review on the force eTap?
Not posted, but soon!
@@Jamesthebikeguy looking forward to it?
I ordered the SRAM Force and it’s on order. This bike has the most tech in any road bike which makes it above the rest. Also made in the USA so you can’t go wrong there either. Was hoping to see a vid on the SRAM 12 speed but, I guess I’ll do my own review when I get it.
Bike muito linda. 👏👏
👌
I'd take it over a Specialized Roubaix.
What do you like more about this?
@@Jamesthebikeguy
It's a cleaner design overall and it also puts the frame resilience where it's more effective for performance. I don't like the front shock(s). I think it's better to build some resilience in to the fork and then fine tune with tires. I actually think that the early Roubaix models (that Trek responded to with the Domane series) were better than the current model. But the current Domane beats them all for my standards.
I have ridden both the S-works Roubaix, and the SLR 7 Domane. I bought the Domane hands down. I’m 58, 6’5”, and 240lbs. I ride every day, and the Domane is just the most comfortable bike I’ve ridden. That said, it is NOT a road race bike in the conventional sense. You really feel the longer wheel base, slacker head tube, etc. If you like to suffer, and still enjoy a super twitchy front end, the the Domane is not for you. However, it is a bike that you can throw a leg over every day and hammer out some serious milage. The arthritis in my hands and wrists are much less affected, and the riding position is far easier on the lower back, all the while keeping 95% of the speed of a conventional road bike. Build quality is top shelf, but some of the first bikes had an annoying carbon fiber “creak” somewhere in the head tube area. Trek came up with a fix for it that seems to address it, but I don’t know if it’s a bad omen for what it might be doing 3 or 4 years down the line ? Time will tell. I’m not one of those guys that gets a new bike every year. I rode my LeMond Arivee titanium for 17 years before trading up !
Hi! What frame size are you using ? The wheels are not damaged due to the higher weight? Thx
As presented- how much???
Trek has a web site which gives up to date prices.
You titled this a review but you didn’t say how it was to ride. You basically shared the specs. Trek we sides lists all that
Titled "feature review and weight". You got exactly what you clicked on.
18.39lb.... NO PEDALS... Wow! That SUCKS. 3lbs heavier than my Emonda SL (not SLR). 3lbs!!!
different type of bike bruv
This handles 38c tires, which means that you can take it off-road. Given that, the extra weight/robustness makes sense. This is no pure road racer.
@@JonFairhurst well the problem is if you want to go offload 38mm would be too narrow, so why would anyone buy this boat anchor
I’ve ridden single track on 30c gravel tires (on a 22 lb. aluminum endurance bike.) It depends on the road and the rider.
I also have a 16 lb. rim brake bike. It stays on the smooth stuff. Too delicate for gravel.
At the limit of 38c tires, robustness makes sense. (Probably makes sense for the warranty department too.)
Wtff bicycle cost 8k ?
New to cycling? Plenty of cheap ones
So torn between this and the madone...
@André Silva My 30th birthday is coming up. Think I know what to get myself...
Is it a little bit closer if you compare the emonda? I live in Wisconsin so it’s very flat. I imagine the madone is still the way to go. Especially since my rides are between 20-30 miles. I’m not trying to do centuries every other week
@André Silva Money is not an issue. I'd be looking at the SL6 in each model. You think the Madone is the best bike of them all? I figure I could throw some 28s on there and make the isospeed the softest setting. I want the option for semi longer rides (maybe 50) but I love to go fast.
Not a fan of bikes without pedals though.
Suppose you have never purchased a higher end bike before
@@Jamesthebikeguy, how does the Trek ALR 5 sound then. Glad it came with fooking pedals, you touchy grump.
Rowdy Yates it doesn’t sound very high end.
@@chrisdarcyburt , I bet it's done more miles than your posing machine, with your fancy double barrel name, didn't fancy plain Burt then, you sound like a right helmet!!
Rowdy Yates you sound jealous
Once you get pedals and cages on it, over 19lb. For $8000. You have to be kidding. My steel bike I raced in 1990 weighed less.
Yeah, totally different things. A sports car today weighs 50% more than what a sports car weighed in 1990. In both bike and the car's case thats because they have a lot "more" in them. The tech, shock absorption, frame storage, aero, ect all add weight but also make the bike faster and more efficient.
18.39 w/o pedals, add pedals you are looking at 19lb, there are steel bikes lighter than that, so much for lightweight 700 carbon
Sure there are a lot of bikes lighter, but that doesn't factory in what this is capable of doing.
I think you're mixing pounds with kg. There are no steel bikes that light. Steel is heavy. I'd love to be corrected with a link to an actual bike
@@0741921 sub 17lb steel bikes are all over weightweenies
Please turn the stem down...😑
Just flip your screen!
You should skip the first two and a half minutes of marketing junk and just start with the features. That’s why I clicked after all.
Trying to give context for those who don't know about the Domane
Too much wacky gimmick stuff, threaded bb tho
The thing is nothing on here is gimmicky, it actually works
Shut up nerd
@@fbgfresh1756 it's ok, just say you can't afford it. We get it you ride on pvc pipes 😂
The Trek Madone SL 7, which lists at $6500, ships with allow stem, alloy bars and a lowgrade saddle with steal rails. Absolutely pathetic.
Heavy and expensive. Get to your LBS and ask the price of a custom Emonda based bike, it'll be "cheaper" and much more enjoyable.
I have both and would not ride the Emonda 2019 over 40 miles. It’s a beautiful light bike and I love it but it will hurt if you A, don't have a athletes core strength and B, cannot touch your toes. The Domsne is heavy and comfortable and eats up long distance because you don't get as tired on the bike. The new emonda is DR2 only as well and I prefer to have cables mechanical on long rides away from a base.
too heavy !
Lose that weight on your body 😂
@@0741921 sure
Quit reviewing NEW bikes, its not the bike!
Then this likely isn't the channel for you. We are all about geeking on new stuff!
