PROFILE

Final score 1.9 - Best frameset, Tour, 06/11 (2011 model)
Super lightweight and now even stiffer around the bottom bracket thanks to the press-fit standard – the Ultimate AL 9.0 SL plays to its strengths. This premium bike with its aluminium frame weighing just 1250 g and super lightweight 100% carbon One One Four SLX fork delivers the kind of outstanding comfort and stiffness that leaves the competition standing. The lightweight Force groupset from SRAM guarantees unfettered forward thrust.

This super lightweight groupset provides astoundingly low weight and extra precise gear shifts. Short, sporty lever travel for fast, ergonomic gear shifts. The double tap technology means you can use a single lever to change up or down. The trusted, weight optimised Mavic Ksyrium Elite WTS wheels work in perfect harmony with the Yksion PRO tyres to keep you flying over the asphalt. With this bike you’ll be playing in the premier league, turning heads even off the race track.

HIGHLIGHTS

VCLS Technology
vertical comfort lateral stiffness

I-LOCK HEADSET SYSTEM
protects the steerer tube

One One Four SLX
for steering precision
and safety

MAXIMUS SEATTUBE
for maximum propulsion

One One Four SLX
The tapered head tube in combination with the tapered steerer tube allow the load to be spread more evenly. This translates into more safety without weight penalty. Large diameters at the fork crown provide better load transfer and reduce the notch effects.

VCLS Technology
The VCLS Stays (Vertical Comfort, Lateral Stiffness) located at the transition of seat tube, top tube and seat stays, are able to absorb the vibrations and lessen the strain on the muscles. This gain in comfort is reinforced by the newly developed Canyon VCLS Post. A Carbon layup with particularly flexible basalt fibres provides a completely new riding experience.

i-Lock headset system
By rendering conventional tube drilling and clamping cones superfluous, the i-Lock headset system protects the carbon steerer from mechanical stress and damages. We were able to save weight thanks to the thin section bearing at the top and the deeply pressed-in, oversized 1 1/2 inch angular contact ball bearing at the bottom guarantees the maximum load rating of the system.

Maximus Seattube
The increasing width of the cross-section of the patented Maximus seat tube increases the lateral stiffness of the frame in the bottom bracket area by 30% compared to a conventional, round seat tube.
