Manson Clinches National Title on Crankbrothers Prototype Carbon Wheels

This past weekend in British Columbia the finest downhill racers from all over Canada met to battle it out for the title of Canadian National Champion. On a dry and dusty track that allowed not one second of rest, Canyon Bicycles’ Magnus Manson took first place, to the elation of the chain-saw revving crowd.

Magnus was onboard a pair of our prototype carbon wheels for the race and we’re thrilled to see them be part of such an impressive victory. After hours of meticulous lab testing, a product’s real test comes on the race track, and we couldn't be happier with the results.
