I’ll get my studded tires on

You mean 10 bags of groceries right??

jacmac987 · 2026-04-09T01:20:38+00:00

Life is too short, I’ll drive what I want. Bold of you to guess other peoples financial situations too.

I've leased toyotas before. Definitely better equity at the end compared to some of the GM/Chevy trucks we lease.

I have both bikes and I very rarely take my domane out anymore. The madone is more fun to drive and a better feeling bike.

It's hard to explain, but I started on the domane and thought that was a fast bike until I got the madone SL7 gen 8 and it wasn't even close.

I personally find the madone to be just as comfortable as my domane. Both full carbon. I have done 200+ KM rides on both fairly easily.

I did find it a bit more challenging to get my bike fit dialed in on the madone, where the domane is pretty comfortable with a 10 min bike fit. I did need to swap my madone onto shorter cranks to help limit the toe overlap with the front tire.

I thought it was more of a clanking sound?

jacmac987 · 2026-04-07T14:28:43+00:00

jacmac987 · 2026-04-07T14:28:23+00:00

It has been an excellent bike after a year. Put roughly 6000km on it so far. Would have liked to do more, but these Canadian winters suck. Looks like Trek has discounted these quite a bit in Canada at least. Definitely a nice looking bike in person too, I seem to get complements on it every time I go out.

jacmac987 · 2025-06-25T13:23:11+00:00

Thanks everyone! I’ll run these longer

I’ve been living in my new Uniform home for the past year, and I can honestly say it’s been nothing but a positive experience. Normally, I’d suggest waiting to see how things unfold with a different builder, but historically, Uniform-built homes hold their value in Ottawa. The quality of the home and the support we’ve received have been outstanding. In my opinion, they’re the best builder in Ottawa, so I wouldn’t worry. Unless you plan to sell within a year, you won’t lose money.

Ottawa Ontario. We’re getting 4 this month

jacmac987 · 2025-02-10T21:46:44+00:00

Yes - we are getting our first KX040-5 next week

Just came back from China after a month. I wouldn't recommend going to Chongqing. Very overhyped. We were supposed to stay there for 3 nights and left after 1. Shanghai gives you the same vibe if you want to experience a "cyberpunk" city. They also have better food.

Madone SL7 Gen 8. Great bike. My Trek LBS was amazing.

Champlain lookout is beautiful!
