Hi,
I cannot find the answer to this after searching for last few hours..Basically I am trying to find out if I could fit a Fox 36 160mm to a Canyon Nerve ultimately to give it 'more beef'.
Or would this mess up the geometry and warranty ??
Thanks

Hi Barry,
Many thanks for your e-mail.
We fit the 150mm Fox fork to the bike. We would not expect problems from a 160mm fork but if it was found that a non-specified fork had caused a problem with the bike then it would not be covered by warranty.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Cullen Ward - Canyon UK
Interesting, I've just got Nerve 9 HS (small). It is a great bike but find the lower BB height gives noticably less rock clearance than my Marin Rock Springs. Cranks are 170mm. I guess fitting smaller/thinner pedals than CB Mallets would help but had not thought of a longer fork to give slight increase in BB height here. Would slacken the fork angle too....
cannot see any warranty issues possible it could throw the handling out a little,give it a try nothing to lose
am riding a canyon torque 180mm at the mo for everything little bit on the heavey side but big grin factor should call it the canyon smile
