Canyon ShapeShifter 2.0 ISSUES? I’ve got the fix, and it takes 5 minutes!

[@michaelgalbato]

That was super helpful! I had the opposite issue where the dh mode would never stay down and the climbing mode wouldn’t stay up. And sure enough, there was too much cable tension and thankfully I had a battle adjuster on my lever. So all fixed, crisis averted, just learned a lot more about my bike lol

[@campbellwilliams8829]

Thanks for the video. I just took delivery of my bike brand new and had the same issue. It ended up being that the cable was actually clamped a little short at the shock/piston end, so even winding the cable adjustment back didn’t give the release enough room. I loosened the clamp and it then worked. Your video taught me a lot about my new toy and I really appreciated the info.

[@CoolBikeVidBro]

Thanks for the good vibes! Enjoy the bike!

[@sophiemarcil5613]

I do have the same problem How do i know if i have to slack the cable or thight the cable? I did the air ajustement but the click and the clack doesnt move. It is stuck in climbing mode Thank for your advice

[@CoolBikeVidBro]

If the cable doesn’t release the dial where it connects to the shapeshifter, then likely there is too much tension, try the barrel adjust first

Hey Ryan, thanks for sharing! You just saved my day and keept me from anxiety that i've made a bad purchase. My shapeshifter didn't switch from pedal to shred-mode.

if you are not the canyon strive group on FB join it. This same question pops up from time to time with the strive. When you get the bike you need to cycle the regular shock and the shapeshifter to balance the pressure. I have over 500 miles on mine and zero issues.

Great Information I bought a Strive about 4 months ago. Over all my Shapeshifter working alright. I ride more in XC(Climb) mode on my local trails but have changed to downhill mode some too.

Excelente Informacion. El Shape Shifter de mi bici tambien se atasca, este video fue bastante gratificante y ejemplificador. Es el unico que habla de este tema

[@metmazzini]

Hi very useful video, I'm with my new strive with the same problem or similar to this, it's stuck in xc mode and doesn't want to know about switching to enduro mode, yesterday it worked today not, I tried to follow your instructions but he doesn't want to know, I completely deflated the shapeshifter air, got on the bike and moved upright on the pedals as hard as I could while I tried to switch to enduro mode without success, I then inflated the shapeshifter to the same pressure as the shock absorber and put it back in enduro mode but nothing happens, I'm very annoyed by this, did I do the procedure correctly? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong, thanks to whoever answers me

[@roman4534]

Thank you very much for the video, I was getting really frustrated i still don't really understand the following though: if I pump up the shapeshifter to 200psi and disconnect the pump, will it stay at that 200 psi? Because everytime I hear air moving out while disconnecting the pump. So I am really struggling to dial in the right pressure...

[@CoolBikeVidBro]

What I’ve noticed is that the pressure in the shapeshifter really is irrelevant (of course if you are a heavier rider, the more pressure the better), i found that upon disconnecting the shock pump, it loses maybe 10 PSI. If it seems like you are trying to finesse the air pressure too much, my guess is that the bushing inside the shapeshifter still is a bit stuck. Mine worked flawlessly after i was able to free the bushing. Make sure that you are in Clack mode, (climb mode) release all the air, cycle the shock as hard as you can, pump the shapeshifter back up in Clack mode, and see if that helps.

[@roman4534]

@@CoolBikeVidBro thank you really much man, I figured it out and the system is working perfectly now. Was getting really frustrated right after being happy to finally receive the new bike! Stoked to try it out on the trails now :)

Thanks man, just one thing i like to point out: adjusting the lever tension really helped in my case as well. Before I adjusted it, it wouldn't entirely open the valve to get into XC Mode, which just increased the problems haha 😁 First ride was helluva lot fun 😁

[@lewisdoyle4297]

Nice video am having similar problems on my new cf 9.0 the air preasure in the shapeshifter drops to about 150 once pumped upto 170

[@CoolBikeVidBro]

I noticed the same thing on mine, i use a Rockshox digital shock pump and I’ve noticed anywhere between 10-15 PSI loss upon removing the pump. Not the shocks fault, but what happens after pulling the pump off. I just over inflate by roughly 10 PSI and that’s seemed to do the trick for me. I haven’t noticed if i run the ShapeShifter higher or lower than my rear shock any difference in performance. Hopefully if it wasn’t working great, the video helped you out!

[@CoolBikeVidBro]

Thanks for reaching out! If you take the cover to the shapeshifter off, look at the dial where the cable connects to the shapeshifter, if that dial doesn’t move when you switch from click to clack mode, then likely cable tension is off, try the barrel adjuster first
