Canyon Ultimate AL 9.0 (2014)

Direct handling, unadulterated forward thrust as well as outstanding comfort and stiffness – The Ultimate AL 9.0 will set racing cyclists’ pulses racing. The new slimline One One Four SLX carbon race fork boasts superb levels of lateral stiffness and reliably absorbs micro vibrations emanating from the road surface thanks to VCLS technology. This keeps your level of performance higher for longer, above all on long drawn out rides. Thanks to the 1 ¼ inch fork steerer, maximum stiffness for the sprint and optimum steering precision for the fast descent are guaranteed.
The completely redesigned Shimano Ultegra groupset delivers pro standard drive train performance. Equipped with the genes of the current Dura-Ace groupset, the brand new Ultegra groupset impresses with its new 11-speed drive-train, delivering both superb shift performance and outstanding braking. The extremely stiff and light four-arm crank guarantees optimum transmission of rider power. You will literally glide over the tarmac on the tried and tested and weight optimised Mavic Ksyrium Elite S WTS wheels.
