Hallo zusammen,

da viele hier vermutlich als Basis für viele Entscheidungen die folgende Studie genutzt haben:

https://www.iwkoeln.de/studien/judith-niehues-maximilian-stockhausen-grosse-gruppenspezifische-unterschiede-487547.html
(Artikel von 2020, Daten aus 2018)

Ich selbst hab das für meine Benchmarks in der Vermögensplanung genutzt und dann einfach Inflationär fortgeschrieben. Ihr vielleicht gesehen, dass dort 2025 ein Update kam, was mich erst erfreut hat, denn dann sieht man mal echte Werte anstelle von simulierten:

(Artikel von 2025, Daten aus 2023)

Leider war diese Studie nicht mit der aus 2020 zu vergleichen, da andere Altersbrackets genutzt wurden, weniger Altersbrackets und vor allem andere Vermögensarten einbezogen wurden wie Betriebsvermögen.

Da ich in einer ähnlichen Branche arbeite habe ich einfach mal freundlich unter Kollegen nachgefragt, hier die Antwort:

Sehr geehrter Herr XXXXX,

vielen Dank für Ihre E-Mail und Ihr Interesse an unseren Forschungsarbeiten zur Vermögensverteilung. Leider ist eine differenziertere Auswertung nach Altersgruppen auf Basis der Befragungsdaten der Deutschen Bundesbank nicht möglich, da die Beobachtungsanzahl nicht ausreichend ist. 

Im Sommer 2026 sollen die Mikrodaten der Einkommens- und Verbrauchsstichprobe 2023 für Forschende verfügbar werden. Wenn uns diese Daten vorliegen, werden wir eine Aktualisierung der differenzierten Auswertung aus dem Jahr 2018 überprüfen. Aktuell ist ein Vergleich der beiden Studienergebnisse aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Datengrundlagen und Definitionen leider nicht möglich.

Ein schönes Wochenende und mit besten Grüßen

XXXXXX

Für Alle die da also drauf warten wie ich, gute Nachrichten denke ich. Bis dahin lassen sich die Daten aber gut interpolieren, im Zweifel einfach ein LLM eurer Wahl fragen da zwischen den zwei Studien möglichst den Mittelwert zu ziehen.

Hello everyone,

little review of my CF8 1by after the first 1000km for everyone interested, from the perspective of a fairly new amateur. Some rambling incoming, skip if you are not interested :)

Bought the bike in February 2026 after selling some $RKLB stock to treat myself, hence the Rocketlab stickers 😄 SIze S, fits me perfectly (29yo, 175cm, 84,5cm inseam, 68kg).

Rode a Pathlite 7 all 2025 and decided it was time to get a bit more serious. The pathlite was my first proper bike and I did a full year of riding until I decided I wanted to stick to the sport. Family and friends are all bikers, I never got into it but realized in 2025 I need to improve my health and need an outlet. I work a lot, full time plus freelance and it really helps me calm my nerves.

I paid 2.918,85€ including 19,99€ shipping with a friend referral. Currently you get it for 2.499€ minus the referral, which is a good deal imho.

First, Current setup/changes I did:

• Waxed chain. Holy moly what a difference it did. Did a proper hot wax setup with a friend who has all the tools at home. Base hot wax setup, rewaxing with Slick Wax now every 100-150km. Cleaning a white bike from oil and degreaser stains was a nightmare I dont wish to have back.
• Favero Assioma MX-2 powermeters (one sided). Love it - as a data nerd this is gold. No issue with them, but set the default time out to something longer. Apart from that they work 100% with my old apple watch Series 7.
• 33mm Schwalbe X-One pro from the stock 40mm. Big difference IMO, rides faster and I dont do full gravel, for that I still have my Pathlite. Grip is still amazing. Not a single flat on both stock tires and these.
• LOAD bag, 3x ZEFAL carbon bottle mounts for long >100km rides, I dont like to have to refill that often. The load bag is great, together with shirt pockets its plenty storage for me. I ride alone 99% of the time so I need to support myself.
• Bought a cheap light mount, drilled holes into the mount and made it fit the undercarriage of the stock CP0045 cockpit. Works for my cheap amazon light, I dont ride at night. I use the canyon rear light. Short battery life but plenty for me.
• SPC+ Phone mount. Controversial I know, but I do not like the handling of bike computers and do not want to compromise the comfort of my iphone. I have an older iphone 13 where I dont really care if the autofocus some day breaks, but for now it has no issue.

Now to the review:

• Bike is an absolute beast, wants to ride fast and feels like an extension of my body after some getting used. The geometry is aggressive and I had to build up some back muscles, but I can ride it >150km by now. Other bikers and people have complimented it and even though I am really not someone looking for compliments, in fact I like to ride trails with as few people as possible, It feels nice having such a cool machine.
• Seat definitely took some getting used to. Im still not 100% if its good for me as my butt does hurt after longer rides, but I will tackle that later.
• Bike fit was not necessary, the canyon size table does a very good job.
• Missing suspension definetely is stiff. Cobblestone and forest paths are not my favourite in this bike, but it works for mixed routes. My rides are 50% bike path, 25% road, 20% gravel and 5% cobblestone I would say.
• Especially for short sprints its a massive upgrade from my heavy pathlite, I'm able to push 641W at 15s, 559W at 30s, 387W at 1min. I feel like this is half the bikes achievement and half the big motivation push this bike gives me, because I feel like I have to step my game up lol.
• No complaints about build quality or factory setup, shiftin, breaking, etc. It was perfect out of the box. The grip tape and cockpit setup felt very good.
• One note: You have to apply much much more carbon grease than you think. I had issues with a slipping seatpost and went to the canyon store. They changed out the clamp for safety, but said it was fine. I just did way too little carbon paste. The service was perfect though and the canyon HQ store is a 15 minute drive for me.
• The 1by setup scared me a little first because we live in hilly terrain, but honestly it is fine. After a very long ride the home climb is though, but still nothing you dont manage as a trained amateur. The highest gears could go faster than I currently sustain. Brakes are great, no squeaking, no issues.
• The paint is not very scratch resistant. I have accepted it, but purists and people who buy the higher configurations (especially the 7000€ bikes) might want to coat it or something.
• I dont like that canyon does not even give you basic tools for such a bike, no bell, no real torque wrench, not even spare screws. I guess thats part of it and not a big expense though. If you buy a canyon bike, immediately buy a proper torque wrench. Im not comfortable screwing into carbon with the plastic toy they give you.

Currently preparing for some larger 250km rides and a 400km jumbo ride later this summer. I guess this will be the real test.

Some questions, if you know I would appreciate:

• Any "Arschraketen" (butt rockets) you could recommend for this bike specifically? For the longer rides I will need more storage, for overnight stays i also need some spare clothes.
• Any locks you recommend? Thinking about a tool bottle in a 4th bottle mounts on the lower crank mount. Would only lock the bikes for maximum 10-15 minutes in front of an ALDI or something. Nothing longer without supervision.
• Is it worth going down the seat rabbithole or is some pain normal on these slim race seats? Nothing I cant manage so I dont know if its worth spending hundreds on fitting, testing, custom seats, etc.

Let me know your thoughts and all the best!
