PROFILE

We revolutionised the racer market with the Ultimate CF SLX. For 2013 we’re taking things a step further – we have redesigned the SLX from scratch, making the frame even stiffer, lighter and more comfortable. A frame weighing just 790 g, an 8% stiffer head tube and an even stiffer bottom bracket.
The super lightweight 100% carbon fibre fork – with its superior stiffness and comfort – is seamlessly integrated into the bike’s design concept. The area around the top of the seat tube has been optimised for greater comfort, with the third-generation Maximus Seattube and a top tube that flattens towards the rear.

The seat stays run past the seat tube and attach directly to the top tube, for improved stiffness and a more direct connection to the road surface. Shimano’s elite groupset Dura-Ace with brand new 11-speed cassette delivers outstanding propulsion. Its unique and distinctive four-arm structure is strongest precisely where the greatest loads occur, and the Hollowtech II technology means the new Dura-Ace chainset is setting new standards in terms of stiffness and low weight. Optimised power transmission is guaranteed. More thrust, more performance, more fun – the Ultimate CF SLX 8.0 turns every kilometre into an experience.

HIGHLIGHTS

Comfortable seat tube junction
absorbs severe shocks and vibrations

OneOne Four SLX
with weight saving carbon drop-outs

Asymmetric chain stays
guarantee optimum ride performance

Bottom bracket housing with carbon bearing seat
guarantees high levels of stiffness

VCLS Technology
Vertical Comfort, Lateral Stiffness – the VCLS Stays in conjunction with the VCLS Post improve the suspension properties of the frame effectively, without affecting the lateral stiffness. The VCLS Blades on the fork, comprising a special combination of basalt and carbon fibres, complete the Canyon VCLS Technology.

i-Lock headset system
With the special clamping mechanism of the i-Lock headset system the drilling of the steerer tube and the fitting of a clamping cone are no longer necessary. This ensures that the carbon shaft of the fork stays intact and offers maximum safety in every riding situation.
