Expirience with the Canyon Strive CFR

Ludwig Döhl When Jack Moir starts at the EWS, he relies on the Strive as his work horse. With the integrated shape shifter, not only the chassis but also the entire geometry can be adjusted for better uphill performance at the touch of a button. The flat 63 degree head tube angle of the Canyon Enduro gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. All in all, in the on moderate runs category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry. Canyon gives 6 years warranty on the bike.
