so, Canyon finally ship my new Road bike 5 weeks after the original release date (extra testing due on the carbon lay up by all accounts)
UPS pick it up from germany last Wednesday, its in the UK 18 hours later. I'm still waiting for it. was going to be delivered yesterday, but it was left in the dispatch centre 😈
I am desperate to see it...
none of you probably care, but this is the result of months of waiting for the right bike at the right price, and I ordered it in January.
What model is it? Those canyons look dead good

expensive, extravagant, and probably wasted on me, but I don't care! its got race winning pedigree at the highest level and the spec for the money is brilliant
Nice bike, terrible service... shame you cant just go into a bike shop and buy one.
Enjoy.
When I win the lottery and go to any of my local bike shops the chances of being able to walk away with a bike I want in my size would be very slim.
That is a very nice bike.
It's here and it is lovely. The 2011 chorus feels very snappy, the wheels make that carbon noise and the frame feels and looks stunning, it fits perfectly too, the cockpit is very low though, as it's designed to be
The communication hasn't been great tbh, but the trade off of the price is they sell direct only, add dealerships into the equation means adding to the price
Are you going to do any sportives on it? 😉
as a matter of interest... what's the drop from saddle to handlebars? fancy posting a pic of your new baby? 🙂
here she is

aftar being out on it for 10 minutes, the saddle needs bringing down a touch, and back a bit, and its good to go
Lush mate, well done...
fancy gate that, like it 🙂
Nice that, couple of point's though. Never refer to a bike as she, its just plain creepy.
De-sticker those Mavics, flip your stem the right way round/bin the spacers, tilt the bars up several degrees. Bosh job done...next.
