Understanding the issue
We have discovered a safety issue in the fork steerer tube of the Canyon Speedmax CF fitted with the V21 Aerostem.
It is possible that after a severe impact or high load situation, like hitting a pothole at speed, the fork steerer tube could crack or break.
This could lead to the cockpit becoming detached and cause a loss of control and potential injury to the user.
