This photo was just quietly posted on a Facebook group, and only a couple of people commented. But I wanted to snap a screenshot before it disappeared. It probably deserves it's own thread in the Road Cycling forum, but oh well.

Yeah, this is quite a departure from the previous design. I almost didn't believe it was a Domane, but compared this photo to the Madone and Emonda, and it's definitely not one of those. This one looks like a Dura-Ace model, so definitely SLR, if that designation still exists. Hopefully the less expensive 500 series carbon versions still have this look.

I'll be curious to see if this actually fits 38mm tires, as the post above suggests. If it does, it's kind of a magical unicorn of bikes.
