Highlights Speedmax CF SLX Road to Roth

The bike built for Challenge Roth

Laser-focused looks

Inspired by the iconic Roth finish line light show, this artwork takes its cues from laser physics – Gaussian beams reimagined in motion. Spun across the frame in shifting patterns of light, the colourway expresses not just speed, but the elation that comes after giving everything. A flash of colour, movement, and memory – etched into carbon.

Challenge Roth: gone in one minute

Every year, entry spots for Challenge Roth sell out in seconds. Race Director of Challenge Roth, Felix Walchshöfer, explains the Challenge Roth phenomenon and what it means to guarantee the race experience to riders who choose the Speedmax CF SLX Road to Roth.

Key features

Your guaranteed slot at Roth

One of the most sought-after start slots in triathlon, Challenge Roth sells out in seconds. Thousands wait months – even years – for their shot, only to miss out in moments. But this time, your place is guaranteed. With the Speedmax Road to Roth, you’re not just buying a bike – you’re securing entry to the world’s most iconic long-distance race.

Inspired by the lights of Roth

The bike’s artwork is rooted in laser physics – specifically the Gaussian beam, the core waveform behind every visible laser. By spinning that beam, our designers created patterns that echo Roth’s iconic finish line light show and the reflect motion, intensity, and precision of elite triathlon racing.

A pro-level fit. In your hands.

With millimetre-level adjustability, dial in the Speedmax CF SLX cockpit to fit your exact riding position. Choose from five basebar options and three extension lengths, then fine-tune reach, height, and grip angle using the included fitting kit. Need more range? An optional kit adds up to 25 mm of extra reach and extension angles up to 22.5°.

Race-proven storage and hydration

The Speedmax’ integrated storage puts hydration, nutrition, and tools at your fingertips – while boosting stiffness and aerodynamics at the same time. An internal top tube box, bottom bracket toolbox, hydration bladder system come as standard, with extras like the FidLock Aero Bottle, BTA Holder, and Seatpost Adapter all available at canyon.com.

Custom Zipp Super 9 disc wheel

On a course as fast as Roth, a disc wheel is essential. That’s why we’ve fitted the Zipp Super-9 – outrageously aerodynamic, and engineered to boost performance across the board, with Zipp’s Total System Efficiency design reducing drag, vibration, and rolling resistance too.

SRAM Force one-by drivetrain

Clean and aero. A single-chainring SRAM Force drivetrain completes the setup – a clean, efficient system focused on one thing: going fast. The one-by design reduces weight, simplifies shifting, and keeps drag to an absolute minimum. Add a built-in power meter for perfect T2 pacing, and you have a drivetrain specc’d for bike split speed.

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.
