Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is FOX Float DPS Factory Remote, with a travel distance of 100mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.

Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Canyon Lux World Cup CF 8 is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
