Uncompromisingly quick, the Aeroad’s performance-enhancing stiffness isn’t equally matched by comforting compliance.
Simply put, the Aeroad CF SLX Disc is a joy to ride at higher speeds, and it’s quantitatively easier to maintain a brisk pace.
It has the speed, the handling and the excitement you’d expect from an aero road bike.
The Aeroad really does let you have your cake and eat it.

Flawless 105 groupset
Disc brakes

First is its obvious stiffness with an extremely direct sensation of acceleration from every pedal stroke; second is the deep carbon rim whoosh as the bike leans from side to side.. .
Excellent component specification, price, speed
Suffers from a choppy ride on bumpy surfaces

Integrated handlebar and stem

Speed is nothing without control. That’s exactly why Canyon’s aero-monster is now available with disc brakes.
