Canyon Grail Fenders?
Does either the carbon or aluminum frame have mounting eyelets for full fenders? I've searched and it is not clear. Thanks.

I have used both and they are very well informed. BTW I have a Roadlite CF 9.0 LTD and it does have mounting eyelets. Good luck

@DowneasTTer - glad you had better results than I have. The don't tell me much more than is on the web site. Then again, maybe asking for fork rake and trail numbers is too much to ask...
@MB4 I'm sure the carbon one does not. For either one - that fork typically is not set up for fenders, so I would be pleasantly surprised if it did. The aluminum frame looks like there is a bolt hole for a rear chain stay. But I think Canyon's answer will be you should use there custom SKS fenders if you want that:

wonder how many technicians it took to mount those tires with zero tire wobble & such tight fender clearances

Sorry you didn't get the info you wanted from their customer service. Maybe I was lucky. Anyway here are the pics of both my rear seat stay and my front fork of my carbon Roadlite CF 9.0LTD. However, you might be right about the Grail.

If you google "canyon grail fender mounts" you get a ton of hits talking about how the Grail series has fender mounts. I contacted Canyon to ask about those proprietary fenders in the picture of the green Grail AL above and they said they have no projected date for availability.
