Trek Madone SLR 9 AXS The First 50 ICON: fifty years of Trek on one frame

For its 50th anniversary, Trek has dressed the Madone SLR 9 AXS Gen 8 in a special Project One ICON paint scheme called The First 50. The specification is that of a cutting-edge race bike: OCLV Series 900 carbon, SRAM RED AXS E1 2x12 with power meter and anniversary-edition Aeolus RSL 65X wheels, for a claimed weight of 6.90 kg in size ML. Its predominantly black finish celebrates the brand's very first bikes.

Who is it for?

For the collector who wants a landmark piece of Trek history, for the cyclist who has been loyal to the brand for years, or for someone looking for the best-equipped production Madone, ready to ride and not just to display.

The LVR workshop view

OCLV carbon, Trek's signature. Beneath the anniversary finish lies the production frame of the Madone SLR 9 AXS in OCLV Series 900: nothing has been sacrificed for looks. Trek has been perfecting this material since 1992, compacting each layer of fibre under heat and pressure to eliminate air pockets. Series 900 adds three-dimensional moulding that reduces ply overlaps; the result is 796 g for the painted frame in ML and 350 g for the fork, with the brand's lifetime warranty.

	OCLV 900 (Madone SLR)	OCLV 500 (Madone SL)	OCLV 800 (Speed Concept)
Level	Trek's most refined carbon	Entry-level road carbon	Trek's former top-end road carbon
Construction	3D moulding, reduced ply overlaps	Same process, more generous lay-up	Proven lay-up, integration comes first
Reference bike	Madone SLR: painted frame 796 g (ML), fork 350 g	Madone SL: painted frame 1,054 g (ML), fork 363 g	Speed Concept SLR: painted frame 1,522 g
What it means	271 g less than the SL on frame and fork; up to 20% stronger than OCLV 800	Same aero shapes, separate bar and stem, gentler budget	Still very high-performing, reserved for triathlon at Trek

Put simply: these editions leave the frame untouched; they change the finish and a few parts, namely Aeolus RSL 65X wheels with a 58 mm rim and an anniversary Aeolus RSL saddle. On the road, you get the ride of an SLR 9 AXS, with deeper rims that favour long straights but catch more crosswind.

The Aeolus RSL 65X wheels, with their 58 mm rim, are deeper than the RSL 51 of the standard SLR 9 AXS: they favour long fast sections but need more care in crosswinds. On the exposed roads towards Capestang on tramontane days, we recommend suitable tyre pressure and staying alert.

The 28 mm Pirelli P Zero Race TLR RS tyres can be set up tubeless, which we do during preparation. The anniversary Aeolus RSL saddle and RSL Aero bottles round off a complete setup; a cover or storage out of the sun will help preserve the paint.

Which Madone should you choose?

Model	Carbon	Drivetrain	Wheels	Weight (size)
Madone SL 7 The First 50 Replica	OCLV 500	Shimano Ultegra Di2	Aeolus Pro 51 carbon	7.87 kg (ML, standard)
Madone SLR 9 AXS	OCLV 900	SRAM RED AXS E1 + power meter	Aeolus RSL 51 carbon	7.00 kg (ML)
The First 50 ICON	OCLV 900	SRAM RED AXS E1 + power meter	Aeolus RSL 65X carbon	6.90 kg (ML)
No. 76 ICON	OCLV 900	SRAM RED AXS E1 + power meter	Aeolus RSL 65X carbon	6.90 kg (ML)

Our take: compared with the standard SLR 9 AXS, The First 50 edition switches to 65X wheels and claims 100 g less. The Replica based on the SL 7, at 7.87 kg in standard form, offers the anniversary spirit in OCLV 500.

LVR sizing advice

Limited edition: check your size before reserving, as a later exchange is not guaranteed. The geometry is that of the racing Madone; between two sizes, choose the smaller for a low position, the larger for more comfort on long days.

Difference from the Replica?	The Replica is based on a Madone SL 7 in OCLV 500, the ICON on an SLR 9 AXS.
Can you actually ride it?	Of course, it is a complete race bike with a power meter.
58 mm rims and wind?	More sensitive to crosswinds; take care on tramontane days.
