I just got into road cycling and bought my first new Trek, an Emonda SL6. I've been working on restoring a pair of old Treks lately; a 1991 Single Track 970 and a 1999 Multi Track 700. Hopefully I'll get around to posting some pictures when the weather clears up.

I just added fenders to my Trek 1.1 for rides in the rain... and they look pretty cool. I thought they would look dorky. Pics forthcoming.
Fenders should add to my Fred-cred.

This is mine! Trek Alpha 1.2 2011. Low end road bike
I only changed the tape to a blue lizard skins one and I got rid of the bontrager stem (on the pic) to get a 140mn FSA one

Trek 1.1 with fenders.
This bike has 3 strikes against it:
1. It's a Trek
2. It has Gatorskin tires
3. It has Fenders

I put fenders on mine during the winter. This is an old pic:
The PDW fenders are really good looking. Also much higher quality than any of the plastic ones.

I scrolled through 16 pages of this thread and I didn't see a single shark fin Madone.
I guess I have to post mine!
No idea how to post a picture into the thread. I guess a link will have to do.

New build I'm in the middle of working on that I'm pretty excited about - will update with additional picture when it's in its final form.
New Stem; new chainring; considering power meter too.

Which is what I did. I went from the Emonda SLR to the Domane and to be honest the difference is not huge as you may think. The Domane is a bit more compliant on really rough roads but the Emonda was no slouch in the ride quality department. The Emonda MAY have climbed a bit better but enough for me to quantify that statement. In the end I wouldn't lose any money to make the switch unless you need just a little more relaxed geometry.

thank you! i was having major FOMO (fear of missing out) since i went with an emonda sl6 even though i wanted a dual iso-shock domane. the price i paid for my emonda made it a no brainer which was the ultimate deciding factor in my decision.
now i need to get aeolous 5 wheels. your bike looks gorgeous with them! and the tired definitely make the black pop. excellent execution.

Has anyone managed to convince Trek to ship home and not a dealer?
I'd love to build my Madone the next time I get the new gen.
Store experience always irritates me. No one cares for your stuff like you would.

I always wrench on my own bikes but admit that if involves cabling or similar I take my Madone to the shop. Just can't be bothered messing around with all the internal/hidden cables and strange brakes.
I am sure it isn't difficult just a few tricks to it.
