About to press the button on a road bike from our european friends but suddenly wondered whether it will be shipped to me here in the UK with euro set up for brakes?

Can anyone confirm? Not listed on their FAQ/help and my google skills don’t give me an answer.

Thank you!

Mine came the right way around, twas an MTB though.

Shimano Hydros are pretty easy to swap though - they have widgets out front

Yup, both road bikes I’ve had ( rim and disc) set up UK.

Might be a bit late with this advise but Canyon set brake to suit the country bike is sold into.
IE you can not get a euro brake set up shipped to the UK or vice versa.
So you should receive the bike UK brake set up.
Hope this helps and enjoy the bike.

Thanks - pressed the button after a beer on Saturday night after a few helpful replies.

Canyon Grail 6.0 for those interested! Bit of a wait until early December but looking forward to it.

Thanks everyone for their help.

You'll just have to hope they don't decide to go down the same route as Rose Bikes 🙂

^^^ 100% there's a backstory behind that that has nothing to do with the availability of brakes.

(My Canyon also came delivered to the UK with UK brakes)
