40 41IMPACT PROTECTION UNIT INTEGRATED HYDRATION SYSTEM
IMPACT PROTECTION UNIT (IPU)
Your Canyon Speedmax is tted with an end stop,
also referred to as Impact Protection Unit or IPU.
This IPU avoids that the handlebars or its ttings
collide with the top tube limiting the possible
handlebar range to +/‑70 degrees.
The IPU is underneath the lower headset and not
visible when the fork is assembled.
Riding without IPU can make the han‑
dlebars or the handlebar ttings collide
with the top tube. The frame can sustain dam‑
age.
The replacement requires a certain
amount of experience and must be per‑
formed by Canyon. Contact our service hotline
or use our contact form.
You can t your Canyon Speedmax with the Inte‑
grated Hydration System that is included in the
scope of delivery.
This system oers a hydration bladder in the
down tube that allows you to ll in 700ml of wa‑
ter (as of frame size M) or 500ml of water (with
frame sizes XS and S).
Pull the drinking tube from its guide between the
mono extension and the spacer tower.
You need not remove the hydration bladder for
lling. You can ll the hydration bladder through
the quick‑ll‑port on the top tube.
Now you can remove the hydration bladder to‑
gether with the quick‑ll‑port and the drinking
tube.
The best way to ll the system is to position your
water bottle directly at the quick‑ll‑port and to
press the water into the hydration bladder.
For the lling process the valve of the integrated
hydration system must be active and completely
pressed downwards.
Remove the cover at the upper headset.
Open the lid on the top tube of the frame, also
referred to as bento box. Press the small button of
the hydration bladder mount. Unlock the hydration
bladder mount from the frame by pressing the
small button.

HYDRATION SYSTEM
REMOVING THE HYDRATION BLADDER
To clean and dry the hydration bladder you have
to remove it from the down tube. The hydration
bladder must be empty before you remove it. To
empty the hydration bladder you can place the
Speedmax upside‑down, if necessary, and actuate
the valve.
The hydration bladder has an internal
stiening which facilitates removing
and sliding the system back into the frame.
The hydration system is only designed
to be used with water. Canyon does not
guarantee the use of any other mixed drink.
