Hey man, thanks for being honest and transparent. People don’t understand until they walk a mile in your shoes. The reason why I am gonna subscribe to you today is for your honesty and transparency. Most channels only show the highlights. That is why I appreciate this mate.
You're always gonna get haters on CZcams. I generally just vote something down if I don't like it, rather than leave nasty comments. Sometimes a constructive criticism can misinterpreted though. Like the psychologists say, person to person is much more useful for comms than something like CZcams. BTW I love the blue skin on your Karoo 2 with the blue Madone frame.
If i'm not mistaken you're directly affecting the youtuber by clicking thumbs down, whereas the comment, if anything, would tell the algrorythm that it's a hot topic. Might be wrong though. Just a thought, not looking to troll
@@Megadeth6633 Well if I don't like a video, I'm not trying to promote it. Honestly I think however you react to a video is all extra churn for CZcams.
IMHO just be you and voice how you feel. If people cry about you being critical about something and not liking it, they can stay salty. There’s a reason why there are hundreds of different types of bikes out there. People like choice and not everyone rides different bikes for a reason. I think I speak on a lot of peoples behalf when I say that we rather see someone giving us their real talk vs fabricated bs. TLDR: let the haters hate.
#1 rule of CZcams … ignore negative comments. There are people that thrive in being negative and changing the course of a channel or a feed. If you don’t like a bike and have a legit reason for it , you might be doing someone a big favor by saving the money if that’s a particular issue that matters to them…, so screw the haters.
Don’t worry about all the haters. You are just offering your opinion and I personally respect that. Thanks for sharing and being honest. I not personally a Trek fan but I totally enjoyed the video. I like learning about all different bikes. We all have our favorites and I wish everyone would just respect that. I look forward to more videos. Ride on!
Keep posting your opinions. Not everyone has to agree but an honest opinion is refreshing. There are no lack of carefully crafted comments so as to not upset people on CZcams or the companies who give them products to review. They will say that it is an honest opinion but I often feel like I’m no further ahead from watching the video. I tune into your channel because I like hearing your honest opinion. Sometimes I agree and sometimes I don’t but I know you’re being honest.
You’ve realized a nightmare that I have once and while; Walk away from bike comeback 5 min later and it’s gone.. I sympathize with you on that one. It’s true gratitude is key and appreciate what you have always in life.. bikes can be replaced (may take awhile these days) but other things not so much
On the photography scene in portrait groups my praise came from other portrait photographer who put out amazing work. The worse comment I got were from dudes with photos of fire hydrants and a porta-potty or a woman with a photo of zoo animals, dandelion, and door knob. With that said many of your thumb down or negative comment show even the people who don’t like you take time to add activity to your content. You are winning.
I've owned '20 and '21 Emondas (Currently have the '21) both are Project One SLR9 Red AXS. Going SRAM (first time) and wireless! I was very concerned. Fortunatly both have been supurb. Not one single issue with either....zero chain drops after at least 16Km on the pair. No doubt I'd have been totally happy with Di2 as well. I obviously had a chance to order the '21 Emonda with Shimano but decided to stick with SRAM. Anyone having issues and if you are not past the point of jumping off the SRAM ship, stick with it. It CAN and does work well! It's best if you can do your own setup/service, but of course not everone wants to or is capable of this. It seems that SRAM dropped the ball on getting the LBS's up to speed on AXS setup. It is detailed for sure but the written SRAM instructions are very good.
Great video bro. I have a Pinnarello Dogma f12 and a Madone SLR. Mainly, the Madone just rides better. It feels more comfortable in every way. I don’t think it’s faster, but again, more comfy. All the best
Be yourself fella..tbh I value honest opinions and if I’m in the market for some of this high end kit I’d like to hear how it honestly performs. Great channel!! Don’t say you like everything just to please the haters..let them watch another channel..keep it up
Great vid! Your passion for bikes & cycling really shines and I think that's awesome. I can relate, I've got an Emonda SLR frameset on the way that I'm building up with Sram red axs and I can't wait!
Great vid Jon, problem these days is yoy can't really say whats on your mind. There's too many people like you say ready to jump on every word. Its crazy. Im sooooo jealous of your madone it looks great. I have the emonda in the blue as well and I loooove that bike so if the madone is better than the emonds wow!!!! Keep these vids coming jon there great 👍
For anyone that owns both: which bike performs better on the routes that should be weak on? For example, does the Mad perform better on hills than the Emon does on flat? I’m in New England so we have both hilly and flat roads and naturally Im hesitant to buy one top line bike let alone two!! Which is the all-around choice?
Hello Question please , I have a problem choosing : madone or Emonda ! And I like climbing mountains mostly , sometimes I do flat but most of the time mountains , please give me your feedback I hope you had a change to see the deference in btw while doing mountain thanks a lot .
Hi! Just wanted to say that i love what you're doing! I work as a bike tech in switzerland and watch this channel to learn more about road cycling. Keep it up!
Keep up the great work. I enjoy that you keep it real. I have a TREK Madone SLR 7 w/ scram axs. I love the bike. Enjoy the new bike and keep the videos coming. 👍🏻🇨🇦
Can i have your view comparing Trek Emonda and Trek Madone? Which one is better for you? If you can only have 1 bike, which one would you pick? Thanks.
Madonna and Emonda the best of both worlds !! I have the Madone slr force axs and a Gravel Chekpoint in Shimano. I also think I have the best duo. Sure if I could improve something. I'll put Sram on my Chekpoint. For the ease of swapping my wheels from one bike to another and to stop thinking when changing gears 😜. Congratulations on your new Madonna. He is very beautiful
A very honest video, you’re awesome 🚴🏽♂️💨 Hey by the way, I’m at Wisconsin and I just visited Trek @ Waterloo , I don’t care was close but I have the chance to take some pictures 😁
Haters will always be around. The issue is not you...it's them. There are a lot of angry people in the world that have keyboard courage. Keep being you. The beauty of so many bike options is there is no one-size fits all and we all like something different and that is OK. I ride a Bianchi Infinito CV with Ultegra components and I absolutely love it. I am originally from the US but I live in Italy now and I always wanted a classic Italian bike brand.
👏, great video man, I think one of your best yet. Been watching for a while and just subscribed. I love my SLR7 Madone and I understand why you are pleased to have it back. 😊 I also get responding to comments and logging in as my channel is growing and I am loving it but it is a commitment. Keep up the good work my friend you are doing amazing work. 👍
I agree Hakuna - It's your CZcams channel Jon and you need to just be you. That is why I subscribed. Be honest.

Forget the naysayers and be true and honest and authentic to what you feel when you ride and offer feedback on what you really feel and think. If we don't like it, say so. Offer why. No need to bash anything but we must be free to vocalise our thoughts sincerely and openly. If we like it, offer why. Both pros and cons offer authenticity.
Maaaaan, you can say whatever you want to say bro...don't worry about these sensitive fanboys...lol..nowadays this generation is too soft and sensitive..they get upset for the littlest thing..
Hi Jon, I'm from the Philippines and i'm currently riding a 2021 Emonda SL5 size 52 and contemplating on a Madone SL6, considering my height of 5'5" and my rides are on an average a 50 mile ride on hilly terrain, would you suggest a change?
i have been thinking. if i were to buy a brand new bike, i might choose scott addict gravel 2022. beautiful geometry, huge clearance for 45mm tyres. i would need two sets of wheels. one set mid/deep section narrow for road and one set of wide for 45mm tyres on gravel.
Always funny how people take things...doesn't matter what ya say. Good to see ya new bike is together...I only have a older opus legato bike, but just put new bars on it that make it better to ride ,so I can appreciate that happy to be riding feeling 🤙🇨🇦
Ah Jon.... you got to block 🚫 out the negative people. Everyone has preferences but that doesn't mean its wrong... its just personal opinion. Im a Cannondale guy, love them. Not a Trek fan but i know its just personal opinion..... keep it real, stay positive and focus on the 99% 👍 btw, comparison videos of the bikes on different terrain would be very good. You might be surprised that the aero bike will i suspect be faster over any type ride 🤔
Nice Video, always honest opinion, that's why I like watching your videos. Would like to know why you went with ZIP 303 wheels over Bontrager Aeolus wheels and what will you be placing on the new Emonda?? Thanks.
The zipps the are only ones I could get my hands on at a reasonable price. I would rather have the Bontrager RSLs but they are sold out until the end of this year. The new Emonda will come the RSLs
Can you feel the different in weight between the Madone and Emonda? Do you think weight matters that much? You have a pretty badass FTP so you might be able to overcome the weight. Thanks!
I don’t know what to decide Madone SL6 or Emonda SL6 ? Haven’t had aero before so not sure if I am going to like it and maybe should go for more practical emonda ? Heard Madone doesn’t feel like typical aero bike and emonda is now more aero ? any thoughts ?
Was stuck between the madone/emonda2022 or the tarmac sl7 pro. Went with the emonda sl 7 sram force 2 by 12. Great set up for 2 grand less then the tarmac and I needed the climb/flat do ability. Lets see how it goes.
Hi I am currently riding a cervello P3 tri bike. I am looking to purchase a road bike that will be more comfortable but keep up with my tri friends. I am contemplating the Madone and the Tarmac from Specialized. Curious to see your thoughts?
One more thing JM .I am a die heart Cannondale rider/racer.i once hated trek bikes I even hated the name .I often compare my C/super six Evo scram red race bike (2013) against any trek road bike.but ionce bored my best friend trek madone SLR for my first my granfondo 2019 .I mmediatlry fell in luv with it .I have a Trek madone SLR 7 on order .Malton Marble color scheme.so. As I said its personal choice .
Hey jm glad ur bc. When u got ur new trek .was the hubs ver/ quiet.bc my trek madpne slr7 hubs are so quiet.i litteraly snaek up on other riders . so why is that .shouldnt they have that bee sting sound..what do ya think. Do ya think the bike shop assemblyer ma y have put on the wrong wheel set .respond asap.Rk
Sadly you’re always gonna get that negative comments when sharing publicly. Whether in a group of people or on social media. You’re always gonna find some idiot that just likes to disagree, just because they can. If they keep commenting negatively, can you not just block them?? 🤷🏼♂️ You have a great channel Jon! I’ve been subscribed from the start and I really enjoy & look forward to your vlogs, I find you a really genuine guy. So keep em coming and don’t worry too much about what people think.😎👍🏻
There's always people who are gonna give you shit no matter what you do and no matter what the topic is. Also just the thought of getting a frame in a few weeks just blew my mind. My Orbea is delayed by almost a year according to their site. Hell new FRAME ONLY orders have a 2023 eta according to their site.
I had a feeling after the first time I watched you that you practiced gratitude bro, you just seemed so happy and so at peace, also you seemed to like you say, have a great life and are blessed. I definitely don't have anywhere near what you have, but I'm blessed and grateful for what I have and know that more is on the way 🙏🏻. Don't let the haters bring you down bro, I've been on and off youtube for best part of 6 years now and I was once part of a toxic clique on youtube and wow, did it bring haters. I've also learnt don't feed the trolls lol, either ignore their comments or block them. I never delete a comment though, as I'm not about communist style censorship 😅 and tbh I feel sorry for the trolls...
Hi Jon, Just discovered your channel. Great content. Enjoy the videos very much. I too have a Madone and think it is a great bike. I have an Emonda SL6 etap on order ( who knows when that will be available ) I am interested to see how the two bikes compare. I will go back and check out your other videos because I believe you might have already done a review of the Emonda. I look forward to your future videos as well.
Yeah your last madone was heavier right? Am sure you could make it even more lighter. Mine is at 16.5 with selle italia saddle and other different parts.
Hi....there is always lovers and haters and people who were just born to moan 😀 keep up the good work and honesty is the best policy and if they don't like it they can do one😂👍🏻
You can not like the bmc it's cool 😉 it's your money, do what you like! 👌👍you're always gonna have haters, that's what haters do. Let them do them, you do you 🤙
I don’t think it’s about hate comments here, I’m surprised people would take advice from someone who hasn’t any real qualifications on which bike is better than the other.. I can point out a lot more bikes more comfortable than trek for eg: sworks tarmac… your opinion is based on looks not engineering tech.. there is nothing wrong with BMC in fact the specs are far more superior than Trek.. it all comes down to which you enjoy to ride… there’s no race here… unless your doing 100mph aerodynamic don’t really work here.. perhaps stop pissing everyone off and stick to your day job..
Hey my friend. You will always find somebody with negative comment. Don’t worry about it. You are doing great with your channel. A lot of valuable information. I really like it. Keep doing what you are doing. Way to go. 👍👍👍
Enjoy watching your videos and congrats on the Madone - that colour scheme is gorgeous! I love mine too. Maybe you can organize a group ride in or around Toronto soon? hope i win the ROKAs :) Ride safe everyone!!
Hey JM screw what people say can't please everyone.im a Trek madone lover but I didn't feel u were bashing The madone .it's a matter of personal taste ..unfortunately their will always be cry babies..stay true too urself .
Never take criticism from someone you wouldn’t seek advice from.
True!!
Oh Snap!
So true! Best advice!

Great video. The SRAM front shifting is… disappointing. Definitely agree exactly with your assessment
Thanks

Thanks Mark, appreciate it!!
I 100% agree. Sram concept and technology (wireless) is great, but shimano is faster and never missed a shift or dropped a chain
Exactly
For anyone that owns both: which bike performs better on the routes that should be weak on? For example, does the Mad perform better on hills than the Emon does on flat? I’m in New England so we have both hilly and flat roads and naturally Im hesitant to buy one top line bike let alone two!! Which is the all-around choice?
I think the emonda is the better all around bike
Great update and cant wait to see the Madone build video. Love your channel.
Thanks so much
Hello
Question please , I have a problem choosing : madone or Emonda ! And I like climbing mountains mostly , sometimes I do flat but most of the time mountains , please give me your feedback I hope you had a change to see the deference in btw while doing mountain thanks a lot .
I would go with the emonda, That’s the one I would pick first

Hi Jon, I'm from the Philippines and i'm currently riding a 2021 Emonda SL5 size 52 and contemplating on a Madone SL6, considering my height of 5'5" and my rides are on an average a 50 mile ride on hilly terrain, would you suggest a change?
I would keep the emonda!!
Time to add a gravel bike to the stable…. Maybe a 3T???
Maybe!!
i have been thinking. if i were to buy a brand new bike, i might choose scott addict gravel 2022. beautiful geometry, huge clearance for 45mm tyres. i would need two sets of wheels. one set mid/deep section narrow for road and one set of wide for 45mm tyres on gravel.
Nice
Always funny how people take things...doesn't matter what ya say. Good to see ya new bike is together...I only have a older opus legato bike, but just put new bars on it that make it better to ride ,so I can
appreciate that happy to be riding feeling 🤙🇨🇦
Happy riding!!
Ah Jon.... you got to block 🚫 out the negative people. Everyone has preferences but that doesn't mean its wrong... its just personal opinion. Im a Cannondale guy, love them. Not a Trek fan but i know its just personal opinion..... keep it real, stay positive and focus on the 99% 👍 btw, comparison videos of the bikes on different terrain would be very good.

Thanks for the input. Will keep that in mind!
I want to sold my emonda for a madone. i started triathlon this year and i've a second bike (caad12) that can make the same job that the Emonda.
Madone is relatively heavier vs Emonda. How is the Madone climbing performance?
Not as good as the Emonda LOL
Nice Video, always honest opinion, that's why I like watching your videos. Would like to know why you went with ZIP 303 wheels over Bontrager Aeolus wheels and what will you be placing on the new Emonda?? Thanks.

Nice to see you on a Madone again. Looks great.
thank you
How tall are you and what is your inseam measurement. I ride 54 cervelos. But interested in this Madone. Thanks
Don't worry about comments, haters going to hate. Either ignore or delete the comments.
Thanks
Hey love your video! I start road and i love Madone did you think it will be very hard to start on road with this bike Vs Emonda? cheers !
Can you feel the different in weight between the Madone and Emonda? Do you think weight matters that much? You have a pretty badass FTP so you might be able to overcome the weight.
Thanks!
I feel it the most when i stand out of the saddle and accelerate, I dont think 1 pound makes that much difference.
Keep it going buddy👍🏻 you're doing Great job 👏🏻
Thank you bud
You are just perfect how you are,haters gonna hate
thank you
Hi Jon, nice bike and even nicer scenery, not one car from beginning to end. Where was this filmed?
Thanks man, I live in Oro medonte, you can see on my rides on strava
I don’t know what to decide Madone SL6 or Emonda SL6 ? Haven’t had aero before so not sure if I am going to like it and maybe should go for more practical emonda ? Heard Madone doesn’t feel like typical aero bike and emonda is now more aero ? any thoughts ?
I like my emonda more for sure! I think my emonda is aero enough and its light
Nice sunglasses! Where are those from?
Oakley kato

I had a feeling after the first time I watched you that you practiced gratitude bro, you just seemed so happy and so at peace, also you seemed to like you say, have a great life and are blessed. I definitely don't have anywhere near what you have, but I'm blessed and grateful for what I have and know that more is on the way 🙏🏻. Don't let the haters bring you down bro, I've been on and off youtube for best part of 6 years now and I was once part of a toxic clique on youtube and wow, did it bring haters. I've also learnt don't feed the trolls lol, either ignore their comments or block them. I never delete a comment though, as I'm not about communist style censorship 😅 and tbh I feel sorry for the trolls...
Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻
Gratitude is the best attitude 💯
Great video as usual. So you've experienced shimano and sram. Any thoughts on trying and reviewing Campagnolo in the future?
Yes, I will try campy as soon as I can
It was easy to set up and easy to maintain
Keep up the good work 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
thank you!
My son is 6'2" will this bike fit
Hi Jon, Just discovered your channel. Great content. Enjoy the videos very much. I too have a Madone and think it is a great bike. I have an Emonda SL6 etap on order ( who knows when that will be available ) I am interested to see how the two bikes compare. I will go back and check out your other videos because I believe you might have already done a review of the Emonda. I look forward to your future videos as well.
Glad you are enjoying your Madone! Thanks for checking out my content, I hope you find value in it
How much does this trek madone weight?
About 17 lbs
Yeah your last madone was heavier right? Am sure you could make it even more lighter. Mine is at 16.5 with selle italia saddle and other different parts.
@@migueltovar9702 Nice
I love the colour scheme on you Madone 🚴🏿
Thank you!!
How are you getting on with the Madone? Can't wait to see the build video, just order my SLR7 etap, 4 long months of waiting now 😭
I love it
Cool video. Looking forward to content on Emonda and Madone. 👌

Whenever the haters stop hating your not going a good job on your content keep up the good work

@@gillystyles4175 Yes, I will arrange a group ride for all my viewers sometime soon
You should throw some zipp 353 nsw on there ! Dream bike
Nice!!
Dam ,,,, the roka glasses is 🔥🔥
thank you
Bruh, opinions are like ass holes, everyone has one! Love your content!!
Thank you, appreciate it
I don’t think it’s about hate comments here, I’m surprised people would take advice from someone who hasn’t any real qualifications on which bike is better than the other.. I can point out a lot more bikes more comfortable than trek for eg: sworks tarmac… your opinion is based on looks not engineering tech.. there is nothing wrong with BMC in fact the specs are far more superior than Trek.. it all comes down to which you enjoy to ride… there’s no race here… unless your doing 100mph aerodynamic don’t really work here.. perhaps stop pissing everyone off and stick to your day job..
Ever consider a subscribers group ride in Barrie area? Appreciate the channel and watched all the videos.
Yes, I will do this in the future for sure
but i own a trek and used to own a BMC..... love them both :)
Very nice!!
Hey my friend. You will always find somebody with negative comment. Don’t worry about it. You are doing great with your channel. A lot of valuable information. I really like it. Keep doing what you are doing. Way to go. 👍👍👍
Thanks! Glad you are finding value in what I'm sharing!!
Enjoy watching your videos and congrats on the Madone - that colour scheme is gorgeous! I love mine too. Maybe you can organize a group ride in or around Toronto soon? hope i win the ROKAs :) Ride safe everyone!!
This is a great idea and something I will do in the future for sure
Hey JM screw what people say can't please everyone.im a Trek madone lover but I didn't feel u were bashing The madone .it's a matter of personal taste ..unfortunately their will always be cry babies..stay true too urself .
good point!
Say what you want. Durianrider doesn't mince any of his words and has butt load of subribers.
If you don't have haters, you're doing it wrong.
Lol I guess so
People hate
Bikes aside.
it's worse when you're on CZcams and people hate your face
true
I see a Tarmac SL7 in your future :-)
Lol we'll see
