In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission and Canada, Canyon Bicycles has recalled (Recall No. 25-156) the Canyon Speedmax CF Triathlon Bicycle. The aerostem fork steerer tube could crack or break, posing a fall and injury hazard.
The company sold roughly 1,400 bikes in the U.S. and approximately 380 in Canada, with no incidents or injuries reported.
This recall involves all Canyon Speedmax CF Triathlon Bicycle models R073 and R41 with V21 aerostems. The carbon fiber bikes were sold in black/red, black/blue, gray/orange, and red and black. “Canyon” is printed on the downtube. “Speedmax” is printed on the top tube. “V21” is printed on the left side of the stem. The model number can be found on a sticker at the top of the seat tube, just below the saddle.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycles and contact a Canyon-authorized service provider to schedule a free repair. The repair will include removing and inspecting the fork steerer tube, replacing the fork if needed and preventative reinforcement of the clamping area of the fork steerer tube. Canyon is contacting all known purchasers directly.
The bikes were sold exclusively online at canyon.com from May 2017 through July 2024 for between $4,000 and $5,000.
