Superb acceleration, outstanding aerodynamics and impressive handling – these are the winning features of the Aeroad CF, which helped Joaquim "Purito" Rodríguez achieve a podium finish in the Tour de France 2013. The Aeroad CF is one of the most successful racing bikes in the pro peloton – delivering first place in the UCI world rankings in 2011, 2012 and 2013, and many race and stage wins in prestigious events like the Flèche Wallone, the Giro d`Italia and the Vuelta a España. In 2014, too, the aero racer is set to continue its success story as the team bike of Team Katusha, our World Tour team. The world class carbon fibre frame and the Aeroblade SL carbon fibre fork deliver outstanding aerodynamics.
Since, however, the demands on an aero bike a much higher than just a streamlined design, a great deal of attention was paid to rigidity, weight, comfort and safety during the development of the Aeroad CF. For example, the Press-Fit bottom bracket guarantees an organically shaped transition from the bottom tube and chain stays whilst delivering rigidity values which set completely new standards in the aero racer class.
The Aeroad CF frameset is perfectly prepared for the integration of electronic groupsets and packed with features such as the Canyon Aeroblade SL carbon fork (370 g), Ritchey WCS stem (1 1/8"), Acros Ai-69 Fiber headset with i-Lock system and Canyon VCLS Post Aero.
