Today was exciting. Christmas came early, found this waiting when I got home.
So I built my bike today. Super impressed with Canyon so far. Inside was the box you see below, inside was a shock pump, a torque wrench (albeit a cheap one but still....), a set of torx and allen key heads for said torque wrench, the volume spacers, some stickers, and a water proof gear bag.
into the stand it went.
Due to Australia's nanny state rules there was a super sweet bell on it and a crappy brake on front but the good thing was the crappy brake came with a good rotor the same as the rear so I've got as a spare.
Congrats, and that colour is awesome! Which model is it?Today was exciting. Christmas came early, found this waiting when I got home.

Stitched 720. I'm old. I like dirt jumping but hard tails just aren't for me anymore so I got the full sus number. You get used to having no front brake but it is weird sometimes.Congrats, and that colour is awesome! Which model is it?
BTW all those photos with no front brake are freaking me out
Yeah it's really nice. I'm in the process of designing up some rim decals that I will get Invisiframe to print with matchy matchy colours. Also got some anodised purple onyx hubs on the way for the sounds of silence. I wanted to buy it frame only but Canyon aren't doing that at the mo as they make more selling complete bikes.@EsPeGe that colour is amazing,
Damn I like the curves on that thing!!!!Took the “big bike” for a spin.

Took me a couple of runs to readjust to the extra squish, and climbs were a bit more strenuous - but it was fun once I got back in the groove. Main thing I noticed - that coil traction. So good.
It’s a gorgeous bike….err…for a 29”Took the “big bike” for a spin.

Was a great night for it too. Your training on the climbs is definitely paying off too, you were hoofing it.
The Sentinel fit you nicely - but don’t tell anyone!
