Conceive. Believe. Achieve.

The King of Kona. The GOAT. The superlatives flow easily when you’re talking about Jan Frodeno.

But Jan’s meteoric rise hasn’t been easy – it’s his unbreakable mindset that has propelled him to the stars.

“Constant improvement is my greatest motivation. Discovering my own limits. It’s a kind of curiosity: how far can I go? And how I can use every setback as an opportunity to catapult right back up to the top?”

Jan Frodeno. Canyon Bicycles. The partnership that changed triathlon forever.

We first joined forces in 2015 – embarking on an odyssey filled with titanic challenges and galactic victories.

But through it all, we remained united by the same goal. To be the best. To build the best bike, to be the best athlete. From day one, it was a match destined to reach the stars.

Jan might be the greatest triathlete ever – but his achievements don’t end there.

Using his priceless feedback and wisdom learnt through a career at the top, we took the greatest triathlon bike in the world – the Speedmax – and took it to the next dimension.

The outcome?
The Canyon Speedmax CFR. The premier bike in world triathlon today. The best. Better.

Through our intensive collaboration with world-class athletes, we get the opportunity to gather their priceless feedback in the early stages of the development process – feedback that we then feed back into the development process to create the best bikes possible.

Over the years, Jan Frodeno have proven his credentials has the greatest triathlete in the history of the sport – leaving no stone unturned in the pursuit of perfection. Race after race, year after year. Canyon’s engineers and designers share that championship mindset, which drives them every day – a level of dedication to perfection that keeps the Speedmax at the cutting edge for generations.

Visualisation is one of the most powerful tools at our disposal as human beings. By harnessing the power of abstract imagery, cultivating a winning mindset, and clearly envisioning your goals, you can defy the laws of gravity and achieve the impossible.

That’s how Jan does it. In the darkest depths of the most arduous races – when the pain levels crank up and things get really tough – he visualises a rocket taking off. Then he turns on the afterburners – and the rest is history. With a design inspired by the Saturn V rocket that propelled the first astronauts to the moon, Jan's signature bike is the embodiment of the meteoric speed of the Speedmax CFR.

In the darkest depths of the toughest races, when the pain levels crank up and every fibre of his being urges him to quit, Jan visualises a rocket taking off. Then he turns on the afterburners – and the rest is history.

Featuring an artwork inspired by the Saturn V rocket and a series of stellar graphic details designed with Jan himself, the Speedmax CFR Moonshot is a testament to the power of positive visualisation.
