Social media has unveiled an unreleased Canyon gravel bike featuring a new Canyon branded suspension fork, a first for the company. While the frame changes appear modest, this addition represents a strategic departure into proprietary suspension technology. The carbon frame aims to balance aerodynamics and functionality, and early indications suggest a travel range between 30-40mm. The development is bolstered by the recent hiring of expert Jose Gonzalez as director of suspension technology, underscoring Canyon's commitment to advancing their product offerings in the competitive gravel bike market.
This is the brand's first foray into its own suspension systems, but it has previously used RockShox suspension on other gravel models.
Given the racy leanings of the Grail model, it's a relatively safe bet to assume having the fork arch behind the steerer is for aero reasons.
Expect to see something in the region of 30-40mm of travel from the all-new Canyon branded suspension fork.
Jose Gonzalez, a long-time suspension expert, has officially joined Canyon as director of suspension technology, indicating the brand's commitment to innovation.
