Who is the Domane+ SLR 7 AXS for?

It's designed for road cyclists who value lightness, traditional aesthetics, and natural support . Ideal if:

• You want to maintain high average temperatures on long routes without getting burned out when you get home.
• You need extra help on challenging climbs or to keep up with a stronger group.
• You don't want to compromise on the aesthetics and dynamics of a premium carbon bike.

TQ-HPR50 motor: near-silent power

Unlike other, larger motors, the HPR50 uses a harmonic pin-ring system that eliminates noise and vibrations, offering a very organic pedaling feel. With 50 Nm of torque, it pushes hard on ramps without exceeding the European legal speed limit of 25 km/h, and you'll barely notice any resistance when you exceed that speed. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

OCLV 800 frame: balanced stiffness and comfort

The 800 Series carbon is Trek's lightest, allowing for an overall weight comparable to that of many conventional race bikes. Rear IsoSpeed ​​technology absorbs vibrations, keeping the rider cool on marathon rides.

SRAM Force eTap AXS 1×12 drivetrain

Wireless electronic shifting delivers pinpoint precision and fewer exposed components. The 10-44T cassette, combined with a 42T chainring, provides enough range for tough climbs without sudden jumps between gears.

The integrated 360 Wh battery delivers a range of between 60 km (Max mode) and 100 km (Eco mode). Adding the 160 Wh Range Extender , available from CaranvaSports , allows you to reach almost 145 km on long-distance rides. It recharges in approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes.
