Canyon presents the K.I.S. Steering Stabilizer

Canyon Spectral KIS

Today Canyon introduced the K.I.S., which stands for Keep It Stable and is a new steering stabilization system invented by the hotbed of ideas that is Jo Klieber – the founder of Syntace. It is a spring mechanism integrated into the frame that connects a cam ring placed on the fork steerer to an anchor point located in the top tube. Sound complicated?
