Canyon's new 2025 Exceed lineup creatively integrates the advantages of softtails into a lightweight hardtail design, marked by a slackened headtube angle and increased wheelbase for enhanced stability and control on descents. It comes with innovative features like downtube storage and a flex post for added comfort during long rides. Canyon markets the Exceed as a cross-over bike, positioning it as more capable than a typical gravel bike while appealing to cross-country and gravel riders seeking versatility in a single model.
Canyon says the Exceed lineup packs the advantages of softtails into a hardtail's lightness and responsiveness, a major shift while full-suspension bikes dominate XC.
The new Exceed geometry, with a 67-degree headtube angle and increased wheelbase, enhances stability for descents, improving handling and cornering performance.
Canyon emphasizes the Exceed's capability as 'more than a gravel bike,' aiming for it to be a one-quiver option for gravel riding and bikepacking.
The Exceed CF 9 features a patented VCLS carbon flex post that mitigates bumps and vibrations, enhancing comfort without sacrificing power, creating a 'softtail feel.'
