Got the bike ready for the more rainy months. Swapped the Princetons out for a set of Tukus C88NEO’s. Not to bad🤫

Hello, I just had my first crash yesterday during a race. Thankfully I am ok, but the bike got the worst of it. I have finished the remaining 100 km on the bike but as this is my first time crashing carbon frame I am unsure of the extent of the damage, and how I should proceed now (contact canyon or lbs).

Anyone has any experience with this, especially canyon bike? Any information would be helpful, thanks. I had the bike for less than 1,5 year.

Installed my Vinci Sentiero 45mm wheels with fresh GP5000 STR and went for first ride. Amazing, comfortable and fast ride.

Looks amazing to me. It weighs 8.95 kg in size S straight out of the box. I’ll weigh the tubes and tires separately on Sunday.

I took it for its first ride with 1.8 bar front and rear, and honestly, the bike didn’t feel as responsive as it does at higher pressures. Despite the low pressure, these tires aren’t particularly comfortable, and they also feel a bit sluggish.

On Sunday I’m swapping them for 2.2" Pathfinders set up tubeless, so I’ll come back with a more detailed review after that.

Once the bike gets up to speed, though, it absolutely flies. I also need some time to get used to the 165 mm cranks. I like how they seem to encourage a higher cadence, but there’s definitely a slight trade-off in terms of punchiness and acceleration.

I’m 175 cm tall with an 83 cm inseam and went with size S. The bike feels very comfortable overall, with a nice, compact riding position.

Update after the first proper ride:

I swapped the stock tires for Specialized Pathfinder 2.2" and the difference is honestly huge.

I’m running 1.6 bar front / 1.7 bar rear, and the bike is now much more responsive and significantly more comfortable. The Pathfinders are also insanely fast — they roll really well, even at these low pressures.

I weighed everything separately, although I didn’t bother removing the cassette and rotors. The rims still have the factory rim tape, which is very well sealed. The new tires seated and sealed using just a regular floor pump, without any sealant.

Total weight as pictured is 9.2 kg.

Now the bike finally feels like it’s coming alive. This is where the fun begins.

Hello,

Got my Aeroad this week and wanted to get your opinion on the seating position.

Feels naturally more stuck than my Grail but so far so good.

quick photo in a dry spot

4 days and 40000’ of climbing in the French And Italian alps. Faultless !

First ride is on the books! A short just around the corner to get the hang of the bike. This is my first Aero, definitely need to get bike fitted. That's next and putting the accessories in.

Btw any good recommendation on wahoo/garmin mount that will fit the cockpit?

Anyone knows the model and for which bike is it?

First ride was a blast. Love this bike already!

After mourning the theft of my first ever gravel bike a few months ago after only having it for a year, I did some research and settled on this beauty. Bought it from the outlet to save about $300 and couldn't find a thing wrong with it out of the box. Was a little nervous to self assemble (even though it was 90% put together) as I'm still new to bikes but it was super straight forward. Had a great first ride and everything was smooth.

My only complaint is the saddle is not the most comfortable (Selle Royal SRX). Any suggestions on a good replacement? I'm not doing anything extreme. My average rides are between 30-50 miles on mostly 70% bike path, 30% gravel roads. Thanks!

Looking to buy Endurace CF SLX 8 . Canyon measure tool looks like this.
