At the entry-level is the Lux CF 6 which is equipped with Shimano SLX shifting, Fox SC Performance suspension, and DT Swiss XR1900 wheels.

Most brands just add travel to their XC bikes to make a trail version, but the Canyon Lux Trail has an entirely new front triangle.

Limited edition Canyon Lux DT is the first to make DT Swiss' all-new 232 XC mountain bike suspension available, including Its lightweight dropper seatpost!

Adorned with 29in wheels and 100mm of rear wheel travel, the Lux is Canyon's super light, full suspension XC speedster. Brand new for 2019, the latest generation Lux has been completely re-engineered with a new carbon fibre chassis that shares very little in common with the old model. Read on for the full review.
The lightweight, practical and spacious frame design
Fantastic power transfer
Razor-sharp handling
Love the trick Quixle rear axle!
Dual lockout creates a very stiff, awkward lever throw
The SID fork isn't the most supple performer
The unloveable Selle Italia saddle

Canyon's Lux CF SL 8.0 Race is a super high value and blisteringly quick cross-country race bike that can also take some rapid trail riding in its stride. The suspension and geometry work well for the intended task but the Gripshifter is a very odd component choice that undermines control and needs changing. The best mountain bikes you can buy for under £1,500 - full sus and hardtails Is it worth converting your mountain bike to tubeless?

Canyon Lux CF SLX 9.0 Pro Race sticks to 100mm of rear wheel but it now has both 100mm and 110mm front travel options dependent which model you choose.
Almost perfect balance of XC race weight and trail bike handling.
Component spec.
Climbs like you have a motor.
Handlebar could be a little wider.

Canyon has crafted a pure XC race bike with balanced, aggressive geometry, premium components, and a suspension platform meant for World Cup racing.

The Lux isn't trying to be an XC/trail hybrid. It has one goal in mind—efficiency.
