The new Canyon Aeroad is the first re-issue of the bike since its inception back in 2014. While the new version looks similar to its predecessor, in fact, it has very little in common with it

Canyon Aeroad CFR Di2 review

Oct 2020 · Simon Bromley

The Canyon Aeroad CFR Di2 is a truly rapid road bike that's very competitive both on the scales and in terms of price, but a slightly outdated front wheel means it suffers a bit on rough roads

Highs
  • Noticeably stiff and very fast

  • Competitively light

  • Comfortable rear end

  • Excellent value

  • Power meter included as stock

  • Adjustable handlebar width

Lows
  • Front end suffers a bit on rough roads

  • Old-fashioned saddle

Canyon Aeroad 2021 review

Oct 2020 · Josh Croxton

The new Canyon Aeroad will certainly pique riders' interests with its quill stem, adjustable handlebar width and market-leading claims of aerodynamics but is it as good as its makers will have you believe?

Highs
  • Slightly relaxed geometry makes it suitable for more riders

  • Genuinely comfortable ride

  • Competitively low weight (7.3kg size L)

  • Aero cockpit's cut-free stem height

  • Width adjustable handlebars

Lows
  • Restricted to Aeroad cockpit, of which six-degree rise option only available… for now

  • Non-carbon-railed saddle seems out of keeping with otherwise high spec

  • Specced with older DT Swiss ACR 1100 Dicut wheelset… for now

  • Tubeless tyres not included

Canyon Aeroad CFR 9 Di2 on test – The aerodynamic comeback

Oct 2020 · Philipp Schwab, Benjamin Topf

Canyon present the Aeroad CFR, promising to be the world's fastest road bike. Read on to find out what a folding handlebar has got to do with it.

Highs
  • Balanced comfort

  • Good straight-line stability

  • Efficient on flat terrain and on descents

  • Compact pack size thanks to the foldable handlebar

  • Many frame sizes and a 650B option for small riders

Lows
  • Cockpit lacks torsional stiffness when turning hard and sprinting at full power

  • In wet conditions and on dirty roads, the 700 x 25C tire up front quickly reaches its limits due to the small contact surface
