    There have been discussions recently around the fact that people like the look/price of Canyon bikes, but different feeling about handing over £000s to find out that you aren’t keen on the bike. So I asked Canyon UK for some info, emails shown below:

    (they replied within 25 minutes!)

    Hi Dan,

    Many thanks for your e-mail.

    Canyon doesn’t have a showroom in the UK. Canyon has a showroom at the factory in Koblenz, Germany. Koblenz is an hour from Frankfurt airport on the train.

    Canyon’s 30 day money back guarantee means that, providing the bike has not been used for more than a test ride on a clean, dry surface, we can offer an exchange or full refund anytime during the first 30 days after delivery of the goods. Full right of revocation terms are available on the following page: http://www.canyon.com/_uk/terms_conditions.html

    Sincerely,

    Cullen Ward – Canyon UK

    Hi,
    Is it possible to view and test ride a Canyon bike before purchase in the UK?

    Thanks,
    Dan.

    Why isn’t everyone on
    Why isn’t everyone on Canyons? New range looks incredible but still good value!

    Where’s my Xmas list?

    they’re not doing it any more
    they’re not doing it any more unfortunately, but a few months ago they were selling an ultimate cf, only 60g heavier than the slx, with shimano ultegra di2 for £1600. Now they’re selling the ultimate al with ultegra di2 for £1700

    My new Canyon Ultimate AL 9.0
    My new Canyon Ultimate AL 9.0 Di2 just arrived. looks stunning and as soon as the TdF highlights have finished I’ll be trying it on the clean dry surface outside. 😀

    I’ve seen mixed reports about delivery times. Well I ordered on Saturday and it’s now Thursday. I’d be impressed with that if it was from within the UK, but from Germany I’m amazed!

    Oh – and with the exchange rate and the current offer it cost £1737.

    And they do an end of season
    And they do an end of season sale around Sept/Oct. They have nearly run out of stock then though (or at least had last year) so holding out til then may mean you miss the colour you want.

    Absolutely superb bikes!

    My next bike will definitely
    My next bike will definitely be a Canyon. The only reason I didn’t buy one last time was that the exchange rate was not good and they don’t do 0% finance, which I needed to get the purchase past Mrs Biggins. I know I could have gone the credit card route but I got 3yrs 0% finance on my Cube Agree GTC and am very happy with it.

    One other thing to bear in mind is that Canyon often have a price reduction during the TdF, so you might save a bit more cash if you can wait until July (and the £:€ exchange rate might move more in our favour too, depending on what happens in euroland).

    I bought an Ultimate SLX 2009
    I bought an Ultimate SLX 2009 model from the Outlet section of Canyon’s website. It was brand new and greatly reduced due to it being a slightly older model than current ones. I can honestly say that it is one of the most comfortable and responsive frames I have ever ridden, not to mention the lightest.

    Take a chance on them – you will definitely not regret it.

    No, much more! Lotto Belisol have gone to Ridley, I seem to remember. Katusha are on Canyon but most have the Aeroad rather than the SLX. Bit more money, bit heavier, bit more aero. CF SLX 8.0 is the best value I reckon although Aeroad 9.0SL with SRAM Red at £3769 is a dream bike!

    I am tempted, but my feeble wattage needs to increase before I can be seen riding such a steed!
