Is Trek Domane good for racing?
The Domane definitely has an intended use. It’s not a pure race bike – if you are an avid road racer, this isn’t the bike for you. The bike handles up to par, but is just slightly slower to corner, so for those high-speed mountain descents and snappy crit courses, this is not the steed to ride.

I’m not going to say that the new 2014 Madone is a quantum leap ahead of the 2012 edition. It was a wonderful bike to ride then, just as it is now.
