Does the bike come with pedals?

No, pedals are not included with the bike and must be purchased separately.

What type of brake system does this bike use?

The bike is equipped with Shimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the Trek Emonda sizing chart provided, which relates rider height and inseam to frame size (e.g., 52cm, 54cm, 56cm).

What is the warranty on this bike?

Can I fit wider tires for comfort?

The maximum recommended tire clearance is 28mm. While some tires may fit slightly wider, it's crucial to ensure adequate clearance for safety and to prevent frame damage, especially in wet conditions or when the wheel flexes.

Is this bike suitable for gravel riding?

The Émonda ALR 5 Disc is primarily designed as a road race bike. While it can handle light gravel or smooth dirt paths with 28mm tires, it is not optimized for aggressive gravel riding due to its frame geometry and tire clearance limitations.

Troubleshooting

Shifting is imprecise or noisy

Check derailleur adjustment. Ensure cables are clean and properly tensioned. Lubricate the chain and cassette. For persistent issues, consult a bike mechanic.

Brakes feel weak or spongy

Check brake pad alignment and wear. Inspect brake lines for leaks. The hydraulic system may need bleeding; this is best performed by a qualified mechanic.

Chain is skipping or falling off

Inspect chain and cassette for wear. Ensure the front and rear derailleurs are correctly aligned. Check for bent teeth on chainrings or cassette.

Wheels are not securely fastened

Ensure thru axles are fully inserted and tightened to the correct torque specification. Check that the dropouts are clean and free of debris.
