LeBron James rides one of a kind bike made just for him

MARCA EN

LeBron James is adding cycling to his offseason activities with a one-of-a-kind Canyon Grizl CF gravel bike built specifically for the 6-foot-9 NBA star. The custom bike features larger 32-inch wheels, added structural support, custom thru-axles and a custom seat clamp to accommodate his size and the demands of rough terrain. While the collaboration is new, cycling is not unfamiliar to James, who grew up riding bikes around Akron, Ohio, including to basketball practice, and whose LRMR Ventures group took an equity stake in Canyon in 2022.
