Canyon Ultimate CF Evo Disc 2020 review

Nov 2019 · Stu Bowers

Such an immediately tangible performance advantage uphill is very hard not to like, especially with no obvious concessions

Highs
  • Incredibly low weight flatters your every uphill endeavour

  • Handling and stability are still on point and comfort is excellent

Lows
  • Getting less for your money (and quite a bit of money at that)

Canyon Ultimate CF Evo Disc 10.0 LTD review

Jul 2019 · Jack Luke

A seriously impressive (and seriously expensive) engineering marvel, a lovely bike to ride and the beginning of a new era of lightweight disc-equipped road bikes

Highs
  • Category-leading low weight, great ride quality, top-end off-the-shelf build with fewer compromises than similar halo-spec bikes

Lows
  • Oh-so-very expensive, unforgiving seat/saddle combo, annoying saddle clamp and it only comes in black
