Highlights Sender CFR Underdog

Fast starts here

CFR - Canyon Factory Racing

The Canyon Factory Racing performance division is the culmination of over 30 years of knowledge, innovation, and German engineering excellence. This is where we build bikes for champions. If it’s not good enough for our team riders, it’s not good enough for you. Ride the same machines as the world’s fastest.

Canyon CLLCTV - Proven at the highest level

The CLLCTV Factory DH Team is where talent meets gravity. Led by multiple World Champion Fabien Barel and featuring some of the fastest riders on the planet—like Troy Brosnan and Marine Cabirou—this is where we push performance to the next level and put our designs through the ultimate test.

Key features

Race-bred Carbon chassis

Developed with direct input from our Canyon Factory Racing team racers, this full-carbon downhill chassis is engineered to win. The low-slung layout maximizes stability, while 200mm of finely tuned rear travel devours the toughest tracks. With proven race-winning pace on the world stage, get ready to ride one of the fastest bikes on the planet.

High pivot. High speeds

The high pivot kinematics of the Sender are carefully crafted to find speed everywhere. The rearward axle path maximizes control and grip through rough sections, while optimised anti-squat values minimize kickback and provide support for pumping and generating speed. The high, 130% anti-rise behaviour centres weight distribution under braking, boosting traction.

Reach for the win

A 63-degree headtube angle, roomy reach, and raised stack height create a confident, controlled riding position. The mullet wheel setup is the World Cup go-to, while the 438mm chainstay lengthens slightly through travel, balancing agility and stability. Dial in the fit with +/- 8mm reach adjustment headset inserts—longer for faster races, shorter for tighter, technical tracks.

K.I.S. - Keep It Stable

K.I.S. steering stabilizing technology is your cheat mode for nailing perfect lines, no matter how gnarly or janky it gets. By adding adjustable self-centering stability to the steering, it boosts front-end predictability and feel. K.I.S. dramatically reduces the risk of front wheel washouts, rock, root, or cross-rut trip-ups. Plus, it's maintenance-free and removable.

Tuned for speed. Tailor to the terrain

The Sender CFR is built to perform on every track. Upper shock mount adjustments offer either more progressive leverage for big-hit composure or less for traction-hunting compliance. A flip-chip provides +/- 5mm of bottom bracket height to fine-tune your ride. Bespoke shock tunes deliver support and predictability while retaining grip-finding sensitivity

Insanely tough, totally practical

Category 5 rated, with a downtube constructed from impact-resistant HIT Carbon (the material used in the Stitched CFR Trial), the Sender CFR is built tough. Double-sealed bearings ensure season-long durability. Fully guided internal cable routing, replaceable thread inserts, and smart bolt access make maintenance easy, keeping your bike on the trail and out of the workstand.

Bike classification

These bikes can be used by technically adept and experienced riders to tackle very challenging, extremely steep terrain with a high number of obstacles. In this category, big jumps are to be expected as well as intensive use in bike parks or on downhill courses. It is essential that these bikes are fully examined for any potential damage after every ride. Further use when using damaged parts could lead to a major component malfunction. In addition, safety-relevant parts should be replaced at regular intervals. Wearing appropriate protective gear is absolutely essential. This category includes long-travel full-suspension bikes as well as dirt bikes.
