Expirience with the Canyon Lux Trail CF 7

Ludwig Döhl With the Lux Trail CF 7, Canyon breaks with a long tradition. Because the Koblenzers do not put their new Donwcountry Bike on the frame of their Racefullys. The Lux Trail comes with a completely independent frame, which was designed without the consideration of racers. The storage compartment in the down tube and the integrated minitool in the top tube show that this bike is clearly designed for the needs of touring riders. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Canyon, at 12,9 kg. Thus, the Canyon is one of the lighter Downcountry-Bike that you get for 3699 Euro . The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with Canyon. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range tours with lots of high meters, the Canyon Fully is one of the best models in the tours with lots of high meters category. With 6 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
