Canyon Speedmax CF SLX 9.0 sizing
Quote | Reply
Hi Guys

can anyone confirm whether it's a proper choice to downsize in Canyon bike?
Always been riding Medium sized bike (Road and Tri). Last tri bike is 54cm Cervelo P3.

Canyon chart gives me Small, or Medium if I change my heigth by 1cm. I am 5'10 (178.5cm), 84-85cm inseam, 64cm torso.

Seems like Medium in Canyon is a 56, and Small is 54.

Looked at Stack and Reach, I am also at the limit between both.

Let me know your thoughts?

Thanks

Have you looked at the premier tactical?

If your at your limit for reach on the SLX you may get a bit more out of the tactical.

I'm 178cm, currently on a 54cm cervelo P2 and have gone with a Medium CF SLX. It hasn't arrived yet, but I made the choice after extensive analysis and consultation with my bike fitter.

i'm in kona now, and while it hasn't been announced yet, i'll be at daylight mind for an all-canyon (current and future owners) breakfast, and i'm going to build an x/y prescriber while everyone eats. i *think* we'll be livecasting it, i'll explain what i'm doing as i go, and when i'm done it'll be like other prescribers, you give me pad x and y and i tell you the precise size and config of the canyon.

i may be getting some help from cyclenutnz on this, he and i are talking, but either way that prescriber will be largely done then, in thursday morning kona time. i'll demo both the slx prescriber and show hot to prescribe cf solutions as well from pad x/y.

so, i don't no nothin' about no sale. but if the question is simply how do you buy the right canyon to match your fit coordinates, that i can help you with. on thursday.
