  "account": "Koblenz - Canyon has launched its third generation gravel racing bike, the Grail, with the most significant innovation being a carbon frame that allows for tires up to 2.25 inches or 57 millimeters wide. To accommodate this, the Grail is now limited to single-speed drivetrains with one chainring. Simultaneously, Canyon has optimized the Grail's aerodynamics. According to the manufacturer, the new model requires less effort to overcome wind resistance at 35 km/h, which is the \"sweet spot\" for gravel racers as tested in a wind tunnel. A longer wheelbase aims to increase stability, while a 1.5 cm shorter stack height allows for a more sporty riding position. For higher-end variants CFR and CF SLX, the pace cockpit can be adjusted in width and height using a Torx tool. New control drops and a bottom tube bottle holder are also included. In collaboration with Cyclite, Canyon has developed a matching bikepacking gear collection. Notably, a carbon wheelset GR 50 CF tailored for wide gravel tires is introduced.",
  "summary": "Bislang machte Canyons Gravel-Modell Grail bei der Reifenbreite einen schlanken Fuß. Künftig ist mehr Volumen möglich. Das sorgt allerdings für Einschränkungen an anderer Stelle.",
