It's the first Madone build where the drivetrain matches the precision of the frame's aero engineering, and it comes with factory carbon wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bontrager Aeolus Elite 50 OCLV Carbon wheels—50mm deep, tubeless ready—are a meaningful upgrade over the alloy wheels on the SL 5. Combined with the 105 Di2 R7170 wireless drivetrain and the Madone's Full System Foil tube shaping, the SL 6 is a coherent aero performance package rather than a frame looking for an upgrade. IsoFlow seat tube and RCS Headset System are standard Gen 8 Madone features throughout the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who want electronic shifting and carbon wheels from the factory on an aero road frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad cyclists who compete in crits, road races, or fast group rides and want precise, low-maintenance shifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCyclists upgrading from mechanical shifting who want to experience Di2 on a bike designed around aero performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to Look For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e105 Di2 R7170:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano's current wireless electronic 105 group.
