Canyon's Fastest Bike Ever: Introducing the Speedmax CFR Track

[@2darkdragon]

those shots inside the low lit velodrome..incredible

[@geoffdavies1199]

I found the graphic designer's comments interesting as I used to work as graphic artist myself. Fast or faster, this bike looks like it came from The Future, beautiful!

[@brittle1]

As a wise man once said, 'the UCI has no jurisdiction here' 😂

[@iwontreplybacklol7481]

Uci can go pound sand..they are and have been holding back cycling with their crotchety old ways.

[@mochno1]

Marketing is 80% of the success :-) I believe that today technology and bikes are almost the same with minimum difference. But marketing, riders team can sign and bring emotions, results is the key.

[@herrmann5384]

Bullshit :D

[@gourami7]

If that was the case how come designs are so different from years ago ?

[@Freddy_Merckx]

I strongly disagree! If the product is shit, not the most marvelous marketing can save that. Canyon always was ahead of its time. I am a Customer since 15 years and bought 3 bikes there. Once I met Hans-Christian Smolik at the Canyon Booth of the Eurobike. Must have been 2004 or so. In the early times of Canyon he was the innovative head and created lots of great prototypes and constructions which also made it to production line. I really admire what Roman Arnold and colleagues created. They not only were innovative in regards to technology but also in regards to the sales channel. They just decided to sell their bikes remotely via the internet instead of having a chain of stores. That was way more cost effective and resulted in a significant price advantage. Not sure if this is still the case as I shifted more towards riding titanium bikes and Canyon does not produce titanium frames. Nevertheless, I still observe what they are doing and still I am fascinated by their innovative solutions.

[@herrmann5384]

@@Freddy_Merckx 100% .. the world champs are not riding the bikes because they suck but because they are top notch

[@gourami7]

@macloving3107 I bought a Canyon some time ago, 2010 and am a feel they have lost their way a bit with complaints about long delays, quality control and recalls. As they have expanded the value in buying direct has decreased quite a bit. Also the lack flexibility in changing things like stems etc has become a pain to many

[@LindaUrban]

Truly a piece of art and as a designer who doesn't normally ride a racing bike, I would hang it on my wall - Just for the appreciation.

[@bartman2395]

ofc u don't, if its not mtb, its gay

[@MousesGjee]

Truely a piece of art

[@BigBlueMTB]

And this bike Just won the Track Individual pursuit in the womens OMG!!!!!🥇🥇🥇

[@davidkendall4588]

Chloe Dygert won the women's individual pursuit. The bike was along for the ride.

[@BigBlueMTB]

@@davidkendall4588 Yeah I'm just talking about the bike and I know she won It. It's just like when people saying the Scott Spark RC is the fastest XC bike in the world even though Nino is the one riding it.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

She won by an enormous margin. Their pursuit squad definitely underperformed though. Wouldn't surprise me if the bike is fairly middling in terms of aerodynamics on the track

[@jigglypuff4227]

Amazing video, very well done.!

[@user-cx2bk6pm2f]

Diggin it. Love my Aeroad... phenomenally good bike.

[@gabbyallong]

incredible

[@antoinesaint-paul9030]

Very nice bike but I have the impression that the video doesn't tell us much about the bike itself. They talk about paintwork for a minute and barely mention the fork, the rear end and the technical development of the bike. It's a bit of a shame... I'm a canyonist but I found Pinarello's video on Ganna's bike better done.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

They don't plan on selling it anyway. Kinda just made this video for jollies

[@frisur420]

because it's the same as any other track frameset that is produced in china for $5

[@wicaul_926]

beautiful bike ❤‍🔥

[@NinjaElephant]

Schaut toll aus! Ich hoffe das nächste Speedmax wird ähnlich aussehen!

[@EstelonAgarwaen]

UCI sagt nein ;)

[@SamuelBlackMetalRider]

I just wish it would trickle down so that Canyon would offer an aluminum Track bike like they did in 2015… or even the equivalent of a CF SLX to compete with LOOK’s Madison… but it’s too niche I’m afraid… SAVE THE TRACK BIKE 😢

[@FlyingPastilla]

Honestly just an aeroad with a beefed up carbon layout strong enough for sprint efforts would sell like hot cakes. Specialized Allez Sprint Track is a testament to that. It would also get instant collector status amongst the fixed gear crowd.

[@SamuelBlackMetalRider]

@@FlyingPastilla totally. Also if MVDP sprints & attacks on an Aeroad, there’s no need to beef it up hahaha

[@schrapnelski]

can I use it for bike packing tours? 😁

[@lemminator1356]

Gutes Video, gute Arbeit!

[@CatManDoSocial]

Pretty cool. Pret-ty cool.

[@toastisbetterthanbread9628]

goddamn thats aero🔥

[@budojon]

super cool !

[@krishnansrinivasan830]

Awesome :)

[@lllengl.9660]

Going to the UCI Track Cycling Championship?

[@stijndeklerk]

Looks cool and all that.. But I can't help to wonder why the bikes I'm intrested in are & have been out of stock for so long, & who's fixing that problem. I know, its a lot less sexy fixing supply chain issues..

[@CanyonBicycles]

You are welcome to pop us a private message via Facebook or Twitter so that we can check the availability of your desired models.

[@SamuelBlackMetalRider]

@@CanyonBicyclesto whoever is reading this at CANYON’s: please bring back an aluminum track frame. Or even the equivalent of a CF SLX for track for regular customers, track racers, crit racers and fixie enthusiasts in general… SAVE THE TRACK BIKE 😢

[@zhouye7647]

how does it compare to hope lotus bike

[@veganpotterthevegan]

Wish they meant to actually sell these to anyone but national teams. If it were under $10k, I'd consider buying it

[@hansdieter4381]

Bro, the price is cheap considering other competition. You should check, what the real Track products cost. Lots of them cost the same just for a frame with fork. Or even without. Let alone double disc, two cockpits, Track Powermeter. If a Porsche 911 was below 10k, I would also consider buying.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

@hansdieter4381 they're not planning on selling these to regular people at all. National cycling bodies will be buying them. The Argon 18 is on my possible buy list. Definitely fairly priced considering the quantities they'll be selling them in

[@hansdieter4381]

@@veganpotterthevegan you can buy one, if you put the money ;) Same like with other hella expensive stuff. But ofc very few people will be able to justify

[@veganpotterthevegan]

@hansdieter4381 not really. They're listing it for sale because the UCI requires it to be listed for sale. Many of these Superbikes can't be purchased. From the Hope bike to the FES bikes the Germans ride. Many have tried and they're indefinitely unavailable.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

@@hansdieter4381 Look and Argon both plan on selling their track bikes to regular people and always have.

[@caspersampson7538]

How about focusing your attention on getting more bikes available to buy rather than constantly “coming soon” or “out of stock”.

[@iwontreplybacklol7481]

Still its the rider that makes the true difference.

[@kim__jong__un]

Approved by Hambini.

[@airguillo31]

@CanyonBicycles is this new track bike faster than the triathlon Speedmax CFR?

[@veganpotterthevegan]

It's gotta be faster at +55kph INDOORS. Low bar to make a bike faster than a triathlon bike that has to hold waterbottles/food, be comfortable for hours and hours and be fast across many wind yaws.

[@bxnny6657]

minimal frontal area, very good i bet its very fast.

[@wattswheelhouse]

Definitely a departure for them, in design and price.

[@hdcbhgzu7479]

20k…..

[@TheSimonnorton]

It’s a shame your customer service centre isn’t as quick ☹️☹️☹️☹️

[@CanyonBicycles]

Please pop us a private message with your customer datas via Facebook or Twitter. We will take a closer look at your case.

[@TheSimonnorton]

@@CanyonBicycles still no response to Twitter message or emails really crappy after sales service, although not surprised looking at reviews. Shame on you I would have expected better from a German company.

[@markianbataller1377]

one of my dream bikes, but cant afford AHAHAH

[@BigBlueMTB]

And Chloe just won the Track Individual Pursuit World champ!!!!🌈🌈🌈

[@Jump-n-smash]

Nice. 🎉

geil gib

[@supercharged5653]

ganz ruhig jan

[@LarsRR]

Looks awesome, but obviously zero availability.

[@bornacuric6538]

Give me one

[@thedudewithpedal]

Just make sure you didn't make your bike with different matte / gloss finish on rear and front wheels, like what you did with your new Aeroad CFR and blaming DT Swiss in the process.

[@yianrid]

Good marketing. Most importantly it’s made in Taiwan👌🏻

[@uptowndann109]

$20,000 for those wondering

:o

[@davidkendall4588]

That thing's hideous. But I guess looks are irrelevant when you're trying to optimize for speed.

[@MrBoggins1234]

Function = Form. Looks similar to last year's GB lotus hope track bike..
