One of these bikes costs nearly 4x the other, but how different are they really?

Can Canyon’s new top-of-the-range Ultimate strike the perfect balance?

Understated looks
DT Swiss wheels are one-trick ponies
Tyres are fragile

Exceptional uphill, fast handling, and a quality build kit make this a very compelling package
Beautifully balanced handling
Considered aero touches
Still feels like a climbers bike
Still some proprietary touches
Threaded BB would be preferable
No 0mm seat post option
Sept 2022 · James Huang
More aero, more stiffness, and more integration, but also a bit more weight.

Sept 2022 · Mike Hunger
Lighter, stiffer and more aerodynamic – and at the same time more robust! We’ve already put the Canyon Ultimate CFR Di2 2023 through the wringer, riding it on all types of terrain.
Robustness as a development goal
Easily adjustable cockpit
Predictable and easy handling
Optimal balance between weight, efficiency and downhill capabilities
Tire/wheel combo affects braking precision on fast descents

Sept 2022 · RBA Staff

Exceptional vibration damping and smooth ride
Modern aerodynamic design
Added stiffness around bottom bracket and junctions
D-shaped seatpost for compliance
Low weight (15.9 lb CF SLX, 13.9 lb CFR claimed)
Integrated cable routing
Longing for lighter CFR model

It's been a long time coming but Canyon's Ultimate has been refined and improved in this excellent fifth generation
Pleasingly lightweight
Beguiling kit list for the price
Easy adjustments to cockpit for great fit
Sharp but fun
Dizzying array of model choice
Canyon’s new accessories will make you part with more cash
Lightest models are expensive
