Anyone in VA - NoVa, Roanoke/Blacksburg, central VA etc. have a Canyon Roadlite:ONfly CF 9 or similar model? Just wanting a look see and maybe a test-ride? I own 2 other pedal assists as a road rider and am interested in purchasing this but have no familiarity w this brand.

Hey everybody,

I just ordered the Canyon Endurance CF 6 and my invoice doesn’t mention anything about import duties and when I was checking out, it only showed me the cost of the bike and shipping.

Did you guys have to pay import duties to UPS upon delivery? Should I just cancel my order?

Crossing the Hudson River, NY. Every angle shows a different color. It feels like riding a piece of art.

Looking to get my first road bike, and want something that I can ride for long distances on, do a half Ironman with, bike to work with (15ish miles each way) and would like to do it all at high speeds. I see people rave about the aeroad, but I don’t want to jump to any conclusions about either without hearing from others first.

Thanks in advance for your insight.

I’m currently based in a country where there isn’t much access to TT bikes or a well-developed secondary market for bicycles. For reference, I’m 176.1 cm tall with an 80.3 cm inseam.

I’ve been offered a Canyon Speedmax from around 2019/2020 in a size M, but I’m unsure whether it would be a good fit for me or if I should be looking for a size S instead. Canyon’s PPS system recommends a size M for this year’s frame; however, i cant find a sizing guide for the 19/20 frame.

I’d really appreciate any advice from anyone familiar with the Speedmax’s sizing and fit, particularly given my measurements.

I have a question for the mechanics here. I’m planning to treat myself to the new Canyon Endurace CF SLX9 in size M. Unfortunately, during the test ride, I already noticed that size M is very tight for me in terms of reach, given that I’m 183 cm tall and have a 90 cm inseam. So I’d like to shorten the T-bar (CP0048-T-Bar) from 100 cm to 90 cm. Can anyone tell me if a regular person like me can do this on their own? Specifically, do I actually have to cut the brake cable, or is it enough to simply loosen the screw connection, thread it out, reinstall the new T-bar, and reattach the screw connection to the brake lever? I’ve already done various repairs and bike modifications at home, and I have a torque wrench. My main concern is whether I can do this myself (including safety considerations). And if so, do I actually have to cut the brake line? If that’s the case, I’d probably need a special tool for it, so I’d likely prefer to take the bike to a mechanic instead. Thanks a lot for the help.

Did anyone try the Speedmax BTA Bottle Cage Adapter paired with the Gear Groove Aero Extensions? If so, do you mind sharing a picture? I'm wondering if it fits properly, if it still allows for the proper installation of the bike computer.

Bonus question: is it possible to have both the BTA adapter and the Speedmax Armrest Upgrade Kit installed on the Aero Extensions at the same time?

Hola a todos. Me surge la duda de la talla con la Canyon Ultimate. Mido 1,73 con 80cm de entrepierna y Canyon me recomienda la S pero intuyo que iría más cómodo con la XS. Qué opináis?

Hi,
I just watched this used speedmax cf 8 (2018). As a triathlete for about 7 years now this would be my first TT bike. Is it worth buying? Or should I go for some newer editions?
And do you know if there are possibilities to upgrade the cockpit? Or is that too old to upgrade things?

And at least: what price you recommend for that? It has been driven for ~7000km, new chain, di2.

Thanks for your help

Got my bike stolen (Lapierre Crosshill 5.0, very comfortable gravel geometry in size M.) I'm 174 cm tall, 81 cm inseam.

As I need a replacement, and realized I'd like something faster, but not too racey - got my eyes on Canyon Endurance CF SLX 8 in size S, which is the size recommended by the official chart. I tried it and it felt really ok.

To be sure, I do a bike fit in a place that's Canyon's experience partner in my city. The guy puts me in a position that was ok and manageable on a test rig for an hour, but definitely not something I was used to with gravel geometry and the longer type of rides I would prefer to do.

He says I should go for 2XS size (!!!) as that fits his measurements. That all seemed a bit unconvincing to me so I did a test ride in size XS - as some sort of "middle ground".

The pictures are from a test ride on size XS. The bike similar to S size felt pretty ok, slightly more responsive and maybe a little "cramped". I'm aware the puffy jacket is not helping here. I can't imagine really considering 2XS and it was not available for a test ride.

Does this bike size seem ok or is it somehow too small?

In austria the aeroad slx 8 axs is currently on a sale for 5500€ (https://www.canyon.com/en-at/road-bikes/aero-bikes/aeroad/cf-slx/aeroad-cf-slx-8-axs/4532.html?dwvar_4532_pv_rahmenfarbe=R107_P12 )
Is that a good deal and does anybody know why it is on sale? New model coming?

Price: 3.750€
Km: 3.000

The bike was bought about a year ago.

Chain and cassette is new.

The seller writes:

The frame has a tiny scratch in the paint, approximately 3mm long, which can be seen in the last photo. This is purely a paint blemish—only the top layer of paint is affected, not the carbon fiber itself; therefore, it poses no safety-related issue.

Ultimate CF7 - Seller says 500kms, bought at the beginning of this season - it’s a carbon DI2 105s group set - $4k Canadian with look Leo 2 pedals, carbon wheels and two sets of tires

Hey, just wanted to share with community that we recently purchased a Canyon Speedmax bike from the official website using FSA funds.
We followed a Truemed route. It gives you options to split payments - FSA/HSA card and personal card. Actually, we paid the full amount with personal card and submitted for reimbursement - just receipt and Truemed letter. No issues at all. FSA provider WEX.

Hello! Beginner looking to get into the hobby.

Using the sizing tool, I sit right between a L and a XL. My body proportions are maybe a bit weird, with relative short legs 89cm, long torso, and long arms, (198cm reach).

I will use it casually, mixing gravel with asphalt riding, however I think asphalt will be about 90%.

I would very much appreciate some feedback regarding which size I should buy.

Best regards

Have a lovely weekend!!

I’m about to pull the trigger on a CF6-
I’m wondering if anyone has used this bike as a two in one-
I’m planning on Using two wheel sets, the one it comes with for gravel with some 38mm gravel tyres and then buying some Chinese carbon wheels for road-
I was wondering if anyone has any success with this?

Layering sucks but I still finished all 61 miles.

Hello guys,

you probably do get this kind of threads alot, but I do have such a hard time to decide currently.

Im planing on buying the CF SLX 8 Speedmax and im completely lost when it comes to the sizing.

Im 182,5 cm tall ~ and have an inside leg length of 86,5 cm~

which leads to be right between L and M, so I thought "hey lets just drive to the canyon store and try it out myself".

So I drove for a little and rode L and M and what should I say, they guy from canyon was super friendly and a pretty chill guy but I feel like he wasnt toooo much in to tri bikes... and I was even more lost than before....

I tried out both and both felt great for the "quick" adaption, the guy who worked there was recommending L in the first place, because it should be possible to fit and is more stable due to the bigger wheelbase (I think).

but on the other hand, the M is lighter and simply has "more room" to adapt to fit it perfectly.

So the end result was basically "you can decide between those" xd

But I feel like he would have went with the L while I still do think that the M is more of a safe bet.

Maybe some of you are or have been in a similar situation, thanks in advance for help.

Im planing on Ironman Frankfurt 2027 btw and maybe a few smaller events (working shifts, which makes it hard sometimes to plan)

Im currently riding a Basso Venta R (endurace bike) RH 56 (which does work rn but I think there is big room for improvment when it comes to the fit) Saddle wise im lowkey close to the edge I have roughly 2cm left to lower (I could prolly go up a few mm) maybe this helps

Hi everyone! What do you think of these impacts on the frame? Should I take it to a bike shop to have it checked, or is it fine?
The frame is a 2024 Grail SLX Gen 2.
