CFR - Canyon Factory Racing

The Next Level

Canyon Factory Racing (CFR) is the culmination of over 30 years of knowledge, innovation, and dedication.

Our engineering team continue to build on their expertise by embracing new technologies and challenging the status quo. They collaborate with our riders to find solutions that deliver them to the top step time and time again.

If it isn’t good enough for the best riders, it’s not good enough for you. So, experience what it’s like to ride the same bikes as your favourite athletes.

World class expertise

The best bikes in the world require a balance of modularity, carbon expertise, and aerodynamics. The exact combination of these 3 ingredients differs depending on the athlete needs.

Jasper Philipsen requires the stiffest, most aerodynamic road bike in the world. Fabien Barel needs an enduro MTB robust enough to take on fast, technical trails. Caro Schiff is alone on gravel roads for hours at a time on a lightweight bike with sleek integrations.

CFR is the stage we use for championing innovation.

Light, stiff, and robust

The finest carbon fibre

Whether you need a robust MTB for taking on the gnarliest trails you can find, or a featherweight road bike for racing up mountain passes, the carbon we use on any CFR frame is the best on the market.

Unprecedented innovation

Adjust and integrate

The Speedmax CFR is packed full of aerodynamic, integrated, rapid-access storage that saves you seconds when seconds matter most. Dial your cockpit fit down to the millimetre and stash your spares in the aero toolbox.

Pedal. Shred. Repeat.

Shapeshifter

Actuated by a remote lever mounted to the handlebar, a small gas spring extends and compresses creating 2 different bike setups (Pedal Mode and Shred Mode).

Watch as the rear suspension kinematic changes to perfectly suit the trail underneath the bike.

Outstanding adjustability

Fine tune your fit

Our groundbreaking CP0018 Aerocockpit places a wide range of cockpit adjustments in your hands.

With 3 distinct widths, it’s simple to adjust with zero cutting required. Its innovative construction makes travel and setup straightforward.

Integration where it matters most

Grail Gear Groove

The Grail’s new Double Drop Bar takes everything we learned from the Generation 1 Double Decker Bar and incorporates it into a lightweight, aerodynamic package with the clever and functional Gear Groove mounting point for all CFR and CF SLX models.

Design meets performance

That kink

Being able to quickly and easily shoulder your bike during a cyclocross race can be the difference between first and second. The kink on the Inflite may seem trivial, but it’s proven itself on the world stage over and over again.

“For those riders that really love speed above all else, this is a real dream bike.”

Cyclist Magazine
