‘Stop Riding’ WARNING: Canyon aeroad

Following a Mathieu van der Poel’s broken handlebar at the Belgian Le Samyn race, Canyon is asking owners of the new Aeroad CF SLX and CFR (equipped with Canyon’s CP00018 and CP00015 handlebars) to stop riding their bikes until the company’s investigation is complete. Owners of the lower-cost Aeroad CF SL are not impacted by this safety alert.

Statements from Canyon:

“We are doing everything we can to equip the affected Aeroad models as quickly as possible with a cockpit that meets both our and our customers’ demands for total quality and safety,”said Canyon CEO Armin Landgraf.

Canyon founder Roman Arnold : “Mathieu fortunately did not fall. We want to ensure with absolute certainty that no one comes to harm before we have fully understood the root cause.”
