Canyon Nerve AL 9.9 SL (2014)

Just a quick glance at this super-light bike is enough to get the pulse racing of any 29er fan. It climbs, manoeuvres and accelerates with the very best whilst offering the smoothest ride around. The hydro-formed tubes mean this premium aluminium frame is incredibly stable, not to mention unique with its flowing design. In addition, every piece of componentry on this bike is first class.
Fox Float Factory series forks and rear shock take care of any terrain. Both are finished with the excellent, friction-reducing Kashima coating and can be remotely adjusted from the handlebars between Climb, Trail and Descend modes. Following the theme of light weight and stiffness, the Nerve AL 9.9 SL comes with a Mavic Crossmax SLR 29 wheelset with milled rims to reduce inertia and provide lightning-quick acceleration.
