It came out last year so anything other than colours is wildly unlikely.
Actually last year was just colours
no the 2019 Roadmachine was a frame & fork update over the previous 2017 model
It’s like this...
MY2018 (July 2017) Teammachine SLR & SLR Disc (gen 3) were launched
MY2019 (July 2018) Timemachine Road gen 2 was launched
MY2020 (July 2019) Roadmachine gen 2 was launched
All the other platforms dit not receive any hardware changes during that same time, only colours or graphic schemes. For MY2020 Teammachine SLR & SLR DISC did receive a full new graphics scheme, but the frames remained unchanged.
we were talking about the Roadmachine...

hard to make out anything other than maybe a more narrow/bladed fork and if there is a bottle aero module, it's external rather than a cutout like the timemachine road
I do like that dark grey frame with black highlights and the big bold contrasting white logo

Difficult to judge, but seems very fat at the front and very skinny at the back.. Unsure how the whole thing will look.
The DT clearly transitions from a narrow profile near the HT to a fatter one toward the BB shell. It looks quite elongated as well.
On the existing Teammachine, the DT is almost round and straight.

Happy to see that kept the ICS system, albeit a revised version, instead of going to a bar + stem combo. It’s odd that they went back to a bolder logo since both the roadmachine and time machine road have very subtle branding. Looks good anyway!

More information from someone who's seen the Red AXS version live. Copied from another forum:
Red AXS etap version. Size 54 6.4kg. Bottle cages - rear one almost “normal” front one a little like TMR. No tool in the middle (exclusive TMR). Integrated they-axle screws, completely invisible. New carbon. SLR02 designation dead. 11000euros. Dura ace 10500, force 7500, ultegra di2 6700. Second tier has no integrated bar/stem combo.
I've also read that there will be two versions, Elite and SLR01.

Second tier, it is meant ultegra - force versions, correct?
