Tomorrow, the bicycle celebrates quite a big birthday. It’s exactly 200 years since Karl Drais 1 out on his so-called ‘running machine’ in Mannheim, Germany. His invention formed the basis of the bike as we now 2 it. Time went by and clearly 3 has changed. Yet the bike has 4 so true to its roots. It’s hard to think of another machine of 5 we could say the same. One of Germany’s most successful modern frame builders is Canyon. Its bikes always score highly in reviews 6 to its special features. It has a compelling mix of performance, value and 7 looks – and this latest model will, too. The WMN range is designed and engineered for female riders. From geometry to handling, it’s built to be comfortable, quick and agile. Disc 8 add security when stopping and the aluminium frame is robust. Frau Drais would have been most impressed.
