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

It has been just over six months since the Canyon Lux was given a new downcountry front triangle option, but it now looks like the base race bike is set for a full overhaul..
Jan 2022 · Guy Kesteven
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

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

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.

It's firm and fast, and light but built to last. Canyon's new Lux Trail trail bike has come to stay and play on North Shore Tech-C trails.

Quickly up to speed and with no kit compromises, I loved the Lux on all but the steepest descents
Snappy acceleration and impressive climbing performance
Kit list is unrivalled in this test
More traditional geometry means tackling the latest XC courses will require sharp handling skills
Non-adjustable bar wasn’t as comfy as the rest on test, although it looks great!
