We test the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Disc 9.0 Aero, Canyon's lightweight allrounder with an aero twist
Stiff, comfortable, fast, light... you name it, the Ultimate has it!
It's personal, but I just can't get on with the Fizik saddle

Canyon's hit a high note with the Ultimate CF SL's quality kit and rapid ride
Incredible spec, rapid handling and racy with it
The snappy steering won’t be to everyone’s tastes

What’s more ultimate than ultimate? The Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 9.0 Aero, of course. All of the performance, without the cost

First seen back in 2016, Canyon's disc brake Ultimate carbon road bike slots in extra space for wider tires along with improved braking for the lightweight race bike. True to its name, there is a lot to like with the fast, yet comfortable carbon bike that we rode up mountains & over mixed road surfaces.

The Canyon Ultimate CF SL Disc 8.0 could be the best bike on the market under $3,000, or it could be the best bike period.
