The basis for Mathieu van der Poel's Cyclocross bike is the Canyon Inflite CF SLX frame. This frame is specially designed in the world champion's look on the top tube and seat stays and has the typical Inflite bend. Van der Poel rides the frame in size L, which corresponds to a frame height of 59.

We're obsessive when it comes to making the best bikes. That's why we do all our design and engineering at our HQ in Koblenz, Germany. The results speak for themselves – with Canyon bikes delivering multiple Grand Tour victories, many World Championship wins, and countless test victories in the international press.

“Pure Cycling” is the slogan of the Canyon Design Team. The bicycle manufacturer from Koblenz was awarded the honorary title "Red Dot: Design Team of the Year" in 2017.

The vast majority of gravel bikes include rigid front forks, being carbon fibre and chromoly forks the most used given its inherent vibration-absorbing properties. Gravel bicycles generally use drop bars, similar to racing and cyclocross bicycles, unlike mountain bikes and hybrid bicycles.
