01
Performance for every podium
Developed in collaboration with the pros of Lidl-Trek, Trek RSL Knit brings a pro-level suite of podium-topping features and knitted technology to every ride.

METNET relief zones
More comfort means better performance, and through a responsive design that provides structure throughout the forefoot, METNET support straps lock the foot in place while relieving common cycling-related foot discomfort like numbness and tingling.

Engineered knit
An engineered performance knit designed with variable densities and patterns provides riders with a compressive, supportive, and unique fit for exceptional comfort and performance.
04
Unbelievably breathable

100% OCLV Carbon plate
A 100% OCLV Carbon plate with a stiffness index of 14/14 provides riders with the best power transfer Trek offers.
