The Tour de France serves as a platform for brands to unveil their latest gear, with Trek and Canyon showcasing new models. Canyon’s unreleased Aeroad was spotted on the Alpecin-Decuninck team bus, featuring a distinctive rainbow spray can paint job for world champion Mathieu van der Poel. Notable design changes include a slimmer seat post and seat tube, non-tapered fork blades, and a cockpit that is integrated differently. The new Aeroad aims to be lighter while maintaining speed performance, with the bike weighing in at 7.7kg. The model also features a Shimano Dura-Ace groupset, Vittoria tires, and a Selle Italia saddle.
