What's Trek's deal with the letters A D E M N O?
Madone. Domane. Emonda. Really, Trek? Do these bike lines really need to be anagrams?

Nah, Daemon will be the next bike they release. It will go on your rides for you in the background while you work during the day.

If you add up the numerical equivalents, you get 666.

Perhaps the Trek Modena will be next in honor of the Italian city. I am partial to Daemon, however.

I need a Trek Amendo... to constantly remind me that riding corrects my sins and overindulgences!

Madone is legit as a place name.
But Domane? I dunno about the "king's crown" thing in Latin...I can't find any credible reference for that definition.

How about a line of randonneur bikes called Meando, touring bikes called Nomade, or a line of utility bikes called Mondea? And after some Irish guy wins the Tour de France, they'll be ready with Eamond, and could even make it a verb if he wins a few: Eamon'd!
Yeah, Trek is onto something here with this letter combination!

Nomade used to be a Motobecane touring model from the 1970s. I owned one at one point. Bikes Direct may still own the trademark?

Their next bike will be the Damone. And it will be totally gnarly.
