Looks like a normal fork and handlebar interface, none of that weird quill stem bullsh**

I'd be amazed if they do retreat from their proprietary shit. I assume it'll replace their also-weird biplane cockpit bike.

What is the source? It doesnt look like the usual Canyon Decals. Looks similiar to the Cube logo on the top tube. It isnt any known Canyon handlebar yet, although bartape looks a bit like Canyon bartape.
Location is definitely not near Canyon HQ.

An "Ultimate Gravel". Weirdly, it doesn't seem to feature the Endurace's split seatpost.

Probably just their next gen Grail. I don't think it sells much at this point, the handlebars were an abomination, the tire clearance wasn't great and it wasn't really any racier than the grizl

It's probably some way off release. If it was ready for launch they'd have JB / VC on it, as they get by far the most views of Canyon sponsored gravel racers.

Unbound release seems possible, but Jasper Ockeloen will probably be racing it at gravel locos

Looks like an Ultimate in gravel guise with a new one-piece bar that has a similar shape to the Coefficient RR, but slightly less radical

Front view shows the slight bend/swoop down from the stem to the drops, and top view shows how the tops have a good amount of bakcsweep.

Nice, so this confirms the use of a normal fork and stem hooray!

That bike definately ticks a lot of boxes.. interesting to see what model that is going to be. Looks like a refreshed Grizl. The swat box also makes sense for that bike. But the bar looks more like pure Racing and the fork is missing the mouting options. I am leaning towards grail or a new model.
Only downside: the frame looks > 1000g with a swat box and integration. Will be interesting to see what it is going to be.
