Stay hydrated
Leave your hydration pack at home and stay hydrated on the longest races. All Lux World Cup CFR models have space for mounting two large bottles – even on the smallest bikes in size XS. There’s ample room in every frame size, although we do recommend Canyon Sideloader cages for maximum ease of access.
Integrated cable routing
Routing brake and shifting cables and lines from the handlebar through the frame creates a super-clean look and keeps your bike running smoother by protecting everything from the elements. And on the Lux, we’ve taken one step further – by routing them directly through the headset, even less cable is exposed for maximum benefit.
Impact Protection Unit 2.0
Our latest IPU – short for Impact Protection Unit – is perfectly integrated into the frame at the headset and protects the top tube from over-rotating handlebars in the event of a crash. The system doesn’t affect the bike’s manoeuvrability – you can still turn the bars far enough to nail the tightest switchbacks on the course.
A 1535g carbon frame
The Lux World Cup CFR frame weighs just 1,535 grams (DIN standards), making it possibly the lightest full-suspension MTB frame on the market. Remarkably, it remains durable and even gains strength and stiffness despite it’s startling weight.
Ready for anything remote lockout
Adjust your ride on the fly with our handle bar controlled remote lockout. Whether you’re tackling a spicy downhill section or sprinting for the finish line, the 2 position suspension lockout, easily accessible from the bar gives you in-race adjustments and the competitive edge.
It climbs and climbs and climbs
Find yourself beating your best times with a bike that won’t quit climbing. As well as Flight Attendant, the bike’s advanced kinematics with efficient shock position that allows high anti-squat values means it will dominate XC races, top prestigious podiums, and conquer World Cups.
It rips descents too
There’s no point in leading on the climbs if they’re going to overtake you on the way down. The RockShox Reverb AXS dropper post and increased front travel chew up steep downhill sections. The long reach and short stem put you in full control.
Clean, sleek cables designed for racing
Fully integrated cables isn’t just an aesthetic choice but also designed to give your peace of mind when your sole focus is the next lap. Unlike semi integrated cables, usually routed over the bottom bracket, there’s no risk of debris build up or track snags ruining your race. In the long term, there’s no risk of smaller particles harming the integrity of your frame, keeping your race ready for longer.
Shaving grams, boosting performance
We’ve eliminated every last unnecessary gram so that you have the most efficient experience possible. Creating a carbon flex pivot, developing a lighter rear triangle, and upgrading the bearings means only the essential remains.
