Ceramicspeed had already caused a sensation at Eurobike 2018: the chain is history in the "DrivEn" drive concept, which is designed to ensure unrivaled smooth running. At Eurobike 2019, the Danes, who are known for their ceramic bearings, oversized derailleur pulleys and highly efficient chain lubricants, showed that this system could also find its place on full-suspension mountain bikes.

The Canyon Lux features a specific rear triangle that is adapted to the Ceramicspeed system with raised struts. In contrast to the road bike study, the drive shaft does not have a fixed length, but can be adjusted in length using a telescopic system. This allows the system to cope with a suspension rear triangle. The engineers at Ceramicspeed emphasize that the system corresponds to a feasibility study and is still a long way from series production.ceramicspeed.com
