My Madone 3.5c.
A new model in the Madone line up for 2012, back to OCLV carbon frame this year and great value entry level carbon bike with Ultegra crank, BB, shifters and derailleur for £1800.
I plan to change the Bonty SSR aero wheelset to Ksyrium Elites which should save around 500gms.

looks like a mountain bike, whats the frame size?
Like the look of it though, very classy0 -
As you can probably see on here I have one of these but upgraded a bit, such a nice bike! They haven't gone back to proper OCLV though, they just changed the name, it's the same carbon underneath though!
Enjoy!
This is what I've done to mine....

Funny having a 11-28 cassette on a bike of that calibre - I would have thought 12-25 would be more normal.
Or did you change it?I'm left handed, if that matters.0 -
all the Treks come with 11-28 as standard now, stupid really, especially as they have a compact crankset.Trek Madone 3.5 (RS80s, Arione)

How did you get it to stand up?0
-
If there is the right amount of breeze, you can do this by leaning the bike slightly sideways into it. Works even better on grass because the blades of grass offer something for the tyres to lean against.
Am guessing he photoshopped out a stand0 -
Nice bike
