What does CFR stand for?

CFR stands for Canyon Factory Racing and it stands for two things: the purpose of the bike - this is the machine that the Canyon Factory riders are racing - and also the caliber of the frame. Canyon CFR frames feature the lightest and best possible carbon construction for a given style of riding - in this case, downhill racing.

Can I buy a Sender CFR frame set?

We do not plan, at present, to offer the SENDER CFR as a frame-only option

If I choose a Sender CFR 29er can I ride it with a mullet setup?

No, that does not work due to the different geometries. Fitting a 27.5″ wheel in a 29″ rear triangle would result in the bottom bracket being too low. The shock mount indicating is only labelled 27.5/29 because both bikes use the same MX link.

Sender CFR

See the bikes

Lighter, more controlled, faster

A brand new carbon frame that’s lighter and faster. Improved geometry, a fresh approach to wheel sizing and a suspension tune that delivers an even more controlled, responsive ride.

Improved geometry, better handling

Improve handling with a low centre of gravity from the repositioned rear shock. A longer wheelbase creates stability at high speeds while outstanding adjustability makes the Sender CFR even more versatile.

29er or Mullet

The Sender CFR is available with two different wheel setups, depending on the frame size and rider preference:

S-M-L: Mullet, 29″ at the front, 27.5″ in the rear
This setup combines great rollover and traction at the front with an agile rear end and more freedom of movement above the rear tire when things get steep.

M-L-XL: 29″ front and back
For maximum traction and rollover capabilities on the roughest tracks. With a slightly longer wheelbase increasing stability- this setup loves to go fast.

Your style, your Sender

You can adapt the Sender CFR to your ride style. The chainstay length is adjustable by 10 mm. Benefit from improved handling in tight turns with the shorter setting or switch to the long setting for maximum stability at high speed.

Adjust your fit

You can also change the reach and wheelbase of the bike by -8/0/+8 mm (FOX) or +8/0 mm (RockShox) at the headset to optimize the bike’s fit if you’re in between frame sizes. Longer wheelbase for greater stability or shorter wheelbase for snappier handling: It’s up to you.
