Review: Canyon Ultimate CF SLX Disc is a hard to beat as an all around road bike

Jun 2018

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.

Canyon Ultimate WMN CF SLX Disc 8.0 Team CSR review

May 2018 · Aoife Glass

Built for speed and efficiency, with a dose of comfort and a whole lot of style. Buy if you want a race bike that's built around the same high-quality carbon frame as ridden by the Canyon//SRAM pro team, and/or are looking for a race-ready bike for smaller riders

Highs
  • Quality race-focused design and spec

  • Large gear range adds versatility

  • Efficient power transfer for noticeable acceleration

  • Range of sizes at the small end

Lows
  • Integrated seat clamp can be fiddly to access, limited tyre choice for 650b wheel size options

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.
