Canyon bikes

[ozerulz]

Anyone here own one? Looking for input. Considering buying one.

Not sure if this is correct place for this thread - the mods will prevail.

However, have owned a CF SLX for nearly 2 years.
Not an issue with the bike build or frame at all and I ride about 10k a year.
Brilliant bike, very solid handling on decents at over 90k's and comfortable to ride over any terrain.
I got mine for its value and to have something different from the rest of the bunch.

Customer service was quite good during the sale/delivery process.

Will probably get another when this mistress is replaced.

I dont have one but they look good. Not heard any negative's.

Unless I find some other bargain in the mean time I will most likely get one at Xmas when in Europe, they will not ship to AU (or US)

And that new seat post, really smart, one of the few things that has impressed me recently with true lateral thinking (I also like the fact that they stuck it up Cervelo for patent breach )

The low-range carbon bikes look pretty good value for what they're equipped with.
I was hoping to save for an Ultimate CF 7.0 as my first carbon bike, but they've sold out of my size in the last few days before I could get enough money.

Got a 3 way choice between the Canyon frame, a BMC RoadRacer frame or a C40

This didn't help you much, but nevermind

Love the look of the new AL Ultimate frameset. Serious envy and on the want list for 2013

I used to own one years ago. Great bikes but a little dull for my taste. What I really liked about Canyon is that they sell direct. I would never buy from the dealer anymore. Only direct for me.

I recently picked up a Battaglin C13 EVO. They sell direct and the bikes have a great look. I bought direct from them and even though I spend some serious cash I know that if I would have bought this bike from a shop I paid 50% more. I believe they sell now also direct in the US. I got mine from the factory in Italy.

So, yes I never had any problem with my Canyon bike but had to switch to something a little more exciting.

Never ridden one, but I know several people who own them (I am in Germany at the moment, where they are made) and absolutely love them. They are on my list to look at for my next bike.
