The Lux World Cup is claimed to be the lightest in the world, with the frame weighing just 1,535 grams.

Is Canyon’s half new and half old Lux Trail CF8 the full package when it comes to downcountry mountain biking?
Excellent AXS wireless component spec for the money
Benchmark DT Swiss carbon wheel and Maxxis tire team
Combined suspension lockout
Stretched straight-line stability
Double big bottle space
Super neat chain keeper
Tidy steering lock stopper
Tool free wheel removal
Under leveraged shock is too stiff
Overly linear suspension feel once moving
Tangible power loss when pedaling
Excessive seat tube height restricts size options
Long reach needs a shorter stem/steeper seat angle
Harsh bar feel
Direct buy only
Dec 2021 · Henry Quinney
Is a new front triangle enough to move a more traditional XC bike into the downcountry category?
Excellent value
'Traditional' pedaling position will appeal to those who don't like steep seat angles
Chain guide and bar rotation limiter are well executed
Not particularly confidence inspiring on the descents
Long reach with slack seat tube can make sizing difficult
Heavy considering the spec

Why does Daz think this Canyon Lux Trail CF 8 might be the best value bike in this category that you can buy?

The 2022 Canyon Lux Trail is the newest mountain bike from Canyon. Combining a lightweight carbon frame, a 120mm travel fork and progressive geometry, the Lux Trail promises more capability and versatility, while still boasting an impressive price. So what's it like to ride? Read on for our Canyon Lux Trail review.
Highly efficient suspension performance
Radical front end boosts high-speed stability
The responsive, sporty handling is brilliant
Fox 34 SC is lightweight, but supple and lively
Incredible package for the money
Practical and well-engineered frame details
Transfer SL has already developed excessive play
Carbon wheels and 35mm bars create a stiff front-end
Firm suspension performance won't be to all tastes
