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 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
