Expirience with the Canyon Lux Trail CF 8

Canyon Lux Trail CF 8 Review With the Lux Trail CF 8, 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 12,48 kg. Thus, the Canyon Fully is one of the lighter Downcountry-Bike that you get for 4499 Euro . With its geometry, the Lux Trail CF 8 is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. A shout out to Canyon – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Canyon Lux Trail CF 8 for on long tours with lots of trails a benchmark in the price range under 4500 Euro. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 6 years warranty Canyon sets the bar high!
