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
