The invention relates to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) comprising: a V-pulley (2) that includes at least one axially movable cone pulley (21); an adjusting device (5) for adjusting a position of the axially movable cone pulley (21); and a control unit (6) designed to actuate the adjusting device (5) in order to change the position of the axially movable cone pulley (21). The adjusting device (5) is a pneumatic adjusting device (5) that moves the axially movable cone pulley (21) using pneumatic force, and the adjusting device (5) has a double-acting adjusting element (51) such that the double-acting actuating element (51) can be moved into first and second axial directions (X-X).
