Highlights Aeroad CF SLX 8 AXS SPEED

Meet the New Fast

SLX: dream big

The Aeroad CF SLX is our cutting-edge aero race bike for riders dreaming big. Optimised with more pro input than ever, and stress-tested at the toughest races in the world, it’s the bike that allows you to chase your speed dreams – and fulfil them.

Watch: the Aeroad Evolution

Alex Paton of Global Cycling Network and Lukas Birr, engineer at Canyon, talk through the evolution of the Aeroad, and discuss how this fourth generation model was developed with more pro insight than ever before.

AXS the tech

SRAM’s latest Force AXS groupsets feature wider 2 x 12 speed gear range with seamlesss shifting even under full power plus built in Powermeter options. All with full AXS wireless control, synced equipment expansion potential and more powerful braking in a lighter than ever package.

AXS the ride

SRAM’s Force AXS is truly next level. Spin the steepest climbs or sprint the finish with inuitive, sequential, wide range wireless shifting that works better the harder you pedal. Fit bags without fighting cables. Add wireless dropper posts or extra ‘blip shift’ buttons to create your ultimate AXS eco system. Sync drivetrain data with ride data to track servicing and optimise equipment use.

Technology

It slices through the air

Don’t take our word for it. Tour Magazine’s wind tunnel test prove the Aeroad needs 204 watts to overcome its own air resistance at 45 km/h. Translation? Nothing’s faster.

One tool for any task

The Aeroad’s front thru-axle has a hidden, built-in TX25 bit you can remove and use on any of the bike’s Canyon screws. A secret solution for emergency adjustments on the move.

Key features

Peloton performance

With the same peloton-leading aerodynamics as the flagship Aeroad CFR, the Aeroad CF SLX is one of the world’s most efficient race bikes and a true aerodynamic masterpiece. To deliver the stiffness-to-weight levels that high-level racing demands, Aeroad CF SLX frames are constructed using a new, advanced carbon layup – generating performance on a par with the World Championship-winning previous-generation Aeroad CFR. The frame features special KAZE paintwork- the Japanese word for wind- and a reflection of the pure speed this bike delivers.

Aero Drops: a slammed, pro-inspired cockpit setup

From more upright and comfortable to low and aero, switch between cockpit setups in minutes using the Aeroad's interchangeable drops. As standard, this bike comes with our longer, narrower, more efficient Aero Drops, which put you into lower, more compact riding position to save up to 14 watts. To give you more control and confidence in fast corners and descents, we added 19 degrees of flare to the drops, and the moderate 105 mm depth from the top bar means you don’t have to go too deep in the drops increasing comfort in an aerodynamic position. Our Classic Drops are available as an aftermarket extra for a more upright riding position, with swaps taking minutes.

A versatile, adjustable carbon cockpit

Our groundbreaking CP0048 Aerocockpit puts a range of gear integration options and fit adjustments, all with no cutting required. You can adjust the width by 50 mm without cutting the brake hoses, and the height by 20 mm without cutting the fork steerer tube. Plus, the new Gear Groove interface provides a solid platform for mounting a range of accessories quickly, from aero bars to computer mounts (available separately).

The benchmark of aero seatpost design

Comfort meets efficiency. Designed using advanced wind tunnel technology, the new Aeroad’s seatpost saves you watts for a free speed boost. Plus, it’s also simple to adjust so you can easily find your perfect riding position thanks to independent setback and tilt adjustment plus 100 mm of height adjust in sizes XS-2XL.

Minimal maintenance headset bearings

Spend more time on the road and less in the workshop. Combining improved seals with high-grade stainless steel bearings, the Aeroad's headset effectively keeps out water and dirt for beautifully smooth steering with almost zero maintenance. Even through hundreds of kilometres in the harshest conditions at races like Paris-Roubaix, these seals are up to the task.

An integrated tool for adjustments on the go

The Aeroad's removable through axle lever doubles up as a TX25 tool that fits almost every screw across the bike, and clips discreetly into the wheel when not in use. One simple tool that you can use for any emergency adjustment on the road.

Please note: the tool is meant for emergency adjustments only. The user is responsible for following the specified torque values when tightening bolts, which cannot be checked with the tool.

Bike classification

Bikes of this category are designed for riding on hard-surface roads where the wheels remain in permanent contact to the ground. These are in general road racing bicycles with racing handlebars or straight handlebars, triathlon or time trial bicycles. The permissible maximum overall weight comprising rider, luggage and bicycle should not exceed 120 kg. Under certain circumstances this permissible maximum weight can be further limited by the component manufacturers’ recommendations for use. Proven cyclocross and gravel bikes with racing handlebars and cantilever or disc brakes are a special case in this category. In addition, these bikes are also suitable for gravel paths and off-road trails where a short loss of tyre contact with the ground due to small stairs or steps at a height of 15 to 20 cm can occur.
