Expirience with the Canyon Lux CF 6

Ludwig Döhl The Lux CF 6 has been on the market unchanged for a number of years, and yet it is one of the fastest race fullys in the world. Most recently, Andres Seewald even became marathon world champion with it. Certainly also thanks to the excellent rear triangle. The moderate 69,5 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. On the way to the summit, the Canyon Lux CF 6 lets it rip. With its 510 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the in light terrain competitors got some catching up to do. The guarantee of 6 years proves that Canyon puts a lot of trust in its products. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
