My Lux Team CFR size M was 10.1kg out of the box, so without pedals, bottle cages, etc.

slightly under 10kg ready to ride now, but changed some parts

Have you found the place of the spacer, that you mentioned on mtb-news.de forums? :)

I think it was just a part laying around in the workshop and not part of the Lux

On rough terrain, sometimes I can hear a rattling noise from the area of the rear hub. Took me a while until I found that out, it is actually a lever of the axle, which can a little bit knocking the inner side of the hollow axle (despite of the little rubber parts).
My Lux CFR came with this axle: https://www.canyon.com/en-hu/gear/bike- ... 10452.html
So I would like to buy a simple replacement axle which doesn't have lever.

Do you know, any brand offers a 100% compatible axle to this frame?
I tried to look around and found that, this has a Syntace-like cone end at the brake-side and must have a Sram UDH-compatible thread on the other end but I found only ~3-4 mm shorter axles so far, which can be compatible.

At Canyon's site I can see that, 2021- Excess CF, SLX and CFR models also uses this axle.

Cool, thanks! :) :thumbup:

I have an up-to-date pic also (sorry for the quality, took it too quickly yesterday). Mainly equipped with the original parts, except for the Power2Max NGeco power meter and 70mm PRC stem + Berg 760mm handlebar. Also an old-school dropper installed, which is a 385/125mm 30.9 KS Dropzone (yes, a non-remote one! :D ).
Okay, the shock has been also changed to a non-remote SIDluxe (which has a slightly more progressive tune than the original remote one, with 1 volume spacer and 2 shims also different inside). Excellent climber, even in non-locked mode! :D

You can get that cone seperate. I think Specialized (Epic / Chisel / etc) uses the same axle and some measure wight and without the cone. Are you thinking 148mm is the size or did you measure it? It should be 148mm + ~10-12mm on each side for the frame droupouts, so you're looking at a 166mm axle likely. Measure your frame dropouts thickness on each side + 148mm + ~1mm for the cone.

I think Canyons axle is the same as this https://www.rapilock.com.tw/en/product- ... e-147.html
