Canyon Lux CF
XC racers and fit riders who want a lightweight 29er, not a trail bike in disguise.
Short-travel XC with Canyon's longer modern reach. It sprints like an XC bike and is less of a downcountry slacker than some 120 mm peers.

Riders who want Epic pedaling with more descent confidence than a World Cup hardtail.
Epic chassis with more trail in the mix: a bit more travel attitude than straight Epic 8, still an XC-derived bike.
XC racers.
Scott XC race 29er with TwinLoc. Short travel, race geometry, a World Cup bike rather than a trail Spark.
