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. A low weight means more rideability on different terrain. If the manufacturer's indication is right, the 10,85 kg of the Racebike von Canyon counts towards the lighter Racebike that you get for under under 3000 Euro. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Canyon Exceed CF 6. Anyway: In the uphill, the Canyon lets the competitors look outdated. With 6 years the warranty is another neat feature. Pay attention when selecting your size: the Canyon Hardtail sizing runs big.
