Expirience with the Canyon Exceed CF 6

Ludwig Döhl A lot of integration into the frame, an extremely low weight and good stiffness. The Exceed CF 6 is a race hardtail as it should be. With 10,6 kg weight for the complete bike, the Canyon Exceed CF 6 joins the lighter bikes that you can buy for under under 3000 Euro. Most bikes in its class are heavier. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The seating position is sporty. Another strong argument needs to be mentioned: the coherent geometry and the grippy tires will make you smile all the way to the bottom of the descent. The guarantee promise of 6 years ensures trust. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
