Re: Official FIT ASSISTANCE for Canyon Speedmax CF and CF SLX [Toothengineer]
Quote:
I am struggling to figure out if this bike will even fit me: the med seems to not have enough reach and the large seems to not fit either.
I would be coming off a size med speed concept.

x 472 to the back of the pad
y 605
745 seat height.

Thanks in advance.

Toothengineer,
As is so often the case with super bikes, there are overlaps in what bikes will fit and for you that's the case as well - but the Medium is the best option.

Option 1 - The Medium with the short stem that comes stock, the low spacer (bike comes delivered with the medium spacer [60mm], in the box is a high spacer [90mm], and a low spacer [20mm), the medium extension which also comes stock on this size. The draw back would be this - the seat post has mounting holes (can I 'em bosses, sure!) for a behind-the-seatpost-cage but for you, on the medium, those holes (well, prolly one of them) will be down in the frame and then if you want a bottle behind you it'll have to be a non-Canyon system that mounts on your saddle rails.

Option 2 - The Small with a long stem. low spacer, and the medium extension - the good here is that you get the seat post mount holes exposed and ready to use. There are two risks with the small: 1) is that you utilize the "customization" process during purchase and that will negate the 30 day return. 2) this is the longest the bike gets, you cannot go even 2mm longer in your cockpit.
