Canyon has lowered the price of the majority of its unassisted and electric bikes.
The Aeroad, Ultimate, Grail and Spectral are now up to £400 cheaper on the Canyon website.
The German brand says the price drops are permanent and not part of a short-term sale.
Canyon has a reputation for value for money, often attributed to its direct-to-consumer business model. Canyon is also almost exclusively online-only, having just one physical store at its Koblenz headquarters.
The bike industry appears to be shifting away from relying on bike shops and distributors, with Specialized and Giant recently introducing the option to buy bikes directly from their websites.
Canyon’s price cuts buck a global trend of rising bike prices since the Covid pandemic began. In some cases, UK cyclists have saddled bigger cost hikes due to Brexit and last year’s Sterling slump, which have made imports more expensive.
The rise of electric bikes also saw us review our most expensive mountain bike yet last year, the Trek Fuel EXe 9.9 XX1 AXS, while the new Scott Lumen eRide 900 SL comes in at £14,699.
