After Canyon's launch in 2002 the brand quickly became known for pioneering direct relationships with consumers through online channels.

The new Canyon Factory location in Tres Cantos, Madrid is the brand's first CFS location in Spain and the fifth worldwide, joining CFS locations in Rotselaar (Belgium) and Eindhoven (Netherlands), as well as the Canyon Showroom in Koblenz (Germany) at the brand's headquarters, and the CFS location at Canyon’s US entity in Carlsbad (California, United States).

Canyon Factory Service (CFS)

Innovation at Canyon is not only about developing incredible products for athletes, customers and fans to perform at their best, it’s also about the entire experience of buying and owning a bike. Canyon aims to embed its innovative DNA into every project and Canyon Factory Service is no different. Far from being a traditional showroom, its CFS experience is based on 3 pillars:

1. Service Center: CFS is a service point where users can receive advice from brand experts or have their Canyon receive the best care from experts in bike mechanics. In addition, customers can opt for a New Bike Day service, a premium experience in which a brand expert delivers the customer's assembled bike followed by usage advice, which can be selected during Canyon’s online purchasing process.

This includes better local visibility, useful guidance for customers when support is needed, but also the implementation of digital tools such as live tracking that will make the entire repair and service process smarter for all parties involved.
