About this tool

What Bike Fit Calculator does

Canyon's Perfect Positioning System uses rider measurements to recommend frame size and seat-height range. It is designed to match riders to appropriate bike geometry and supports selection between overlapping sizes based on riding preference. The sizing workflow is available for free during bike selection. | What sets Canyon's version apart is its integration with the brand's bike inventory. The algorithm compares body height to inner leg length using over 15,000 data points to determine the ideal frame size, and it recommends a seat-height range. Unlike generic calculators, the tool displays size recommendations directly on each bike's product page and allows users to save measurements to an account for tailored recommendations on future visits. It also distinguishes between overlapping sizes based on intended use and riding style.

Questions

Bike Fit Calculator FAQ

Can I use the Perfect Positioning System without buying a Canyon bike?
The tool uses over 15,000 data points comparing your height-to-inner-leg ratio to determine your ideal Canyon size, and it also recommends a seat-height range based on the specific bike's geometry.
How does Canyon's sizing differ from other brands?
Canyon sizes all bikes separately by taking into account the geometry of the whole bike and its intended use, meaning each model has unique characteristics. You may fit a large with another manufacturer but find a medium Canyon bike is a much better fit.
What if I fall between two frame sizes?
The system supports selection between overlapping sizes based on your riding preference, allowing you to choose based on whether you prioritize agility or stability for the bike's intended use.
