Hi folks! I'm between the Premiere Tactical or the Canyon Speedmax CF SLX 8.0 right now. I'm curious on some things
-I see that the cockpit can be set at 7 or 0 degrees. Is there any in between here? Any 3rd party solutions?
-I see in Europe you can essentially buy a Speedmax CF SLX 8.0 without nice wheels. I'd love this option considering I have wheels already, rather than having to sell back the canyon wheels after buying. Looking for all thoughts/ advice here.

The premiere is a super, super compelling option. I already have a Scicon bag, but love the Premiere option. I'd sell my Scicon to get the premiere box, can buy the bike without wheels, and have more flexibility in the fit. The only things that the Canyon that Premiere doesnt are a.) Integrated storage and b.) the brand. I love the canyon brand and the athletes involved. I really love the look of the Canyon as well.

I think if Canyon was to have a nice Black Friday Sale too, I'd probably pull the trigger. I was planning on waiting to buy a bike until January (traveling for work through december) but im biting at the bit.

I'd love to hear more reasons as to why I should go for Canyon.

Thanks!

They told me 3W last Monday!!

When it comes to the cockpit, does Canyon provides those 0/7 angle brackets in the box? So extra ones to adjust the height?

Nope, those are not included. A set cost 100euro.

@CanyonJay can you please confirm you guys won’t have any stock of speedmax until Jan/Feb? That could be a game changer for me. I called the other they and they told me 3 weeks....

Thanks!!

I've given up on Canyon. They aren't able to keep up with inventory on their popular bikes and their "email alert when in stock" has never worked for me. I've called them to get ETAs for new inventory and it's always been a lot longer than they say. When they do get new stock, I have yet to receive an email alerting me (which you can sign up for) and then what I want has already sold out.

I've decided to stick with my local bike shops instead.

My bad :)

SPEEDMAX CF SLX 8.0 SL

I’ll make it dura-car by myself, which will be way cheaper with Black Friday around the corner. I just don’t won’t those super high dollar Zipp wheels but since we do not have the same catalog that in EU, I’ll have to go with plan B :)instead.

It seems that Canyon bikes come little bigger than the competition... I've been riding M for my whole life (175cm) both road and TT, but the recommend me to go with an S when it comes to the Speedmax.

It depends on the pad stack and pad reach you want to ride:
  • In both the 2018 and 2019 frames, there is a choice of stem (65mm or 85mm) that changes the pad reach range possible.
  • In the 2018 frames there is choice of 3 base bars and because of where the pads / spacers mount that changes the pad stack ranges possible on each.
  • In the 2019 frames, the arm rests mount to a central pedestal, but the pad stack range is smaller and with a like for like "flat" 2018 base bar also a bit taller.
  • As noted above there is a team switch plate kit that allows the 2018 arm pads to be both narrower and less pad reach. There is also an angled spacer kit both of which are ordered when you configure the bike.
  • The 2018 bikes have a 1-piece bottle, the 2019 bikes is 2 piece that joins under / through the arm pad pedestal.

In my case for pad stack = 620, pad reach (centre) = 509, bb-saddle = 809 (albeit I raced this season at a pad reach (centre) of 533. I'm 181cm tall, but long limbs):
  • 2018 medium, 85mm stem, flat bar and pedestalled up quite high. With the longer pad reach I rode this year, it would be the absolute max pad reach possible.
  • 2018 large, 65mm stem, drop or the flat bar with relatively few spacers. On the flat bar I cant go down much (~15mm max), the drop bar I'm very near the middle of window, but would need the team switch plate for less pad reach. (Actual pad reach without the switch plate when set like this should be 511).
  • 2019 large does not fit as too much pad stack. 2019 medium would fit with the 85mm stem and pedestalled like the 2018 bike.

Anyway I actually ordered a 2018 large, 65mm stem, drop bar and the various accessories. The one-piece bottle and a front-centre much closer to what I like / am used to riding swung it for me. The other bike that would sensibly work for me is a Trek SC, but all depends on your fit.

couple of things. first, it's much easier if by "stack" and "reach" you say what you really mean. is it "pad stack"? if so, please say it, because "stack" means something entirely different.

second, mdiaz is right. canyon bikes are "bigger" than the competition, if by "bigger" what is meant is that a canyon in size small is "bigger" than other bikes in size small.

canyons are "bigger" not in height, but in length. however, it's the length that matters, because the height of a canyon, in an SLX, is quite adjustable. you can - as you know - change the pursuit bar as well as the pads, and quite liberally. you can change the length as well, for fit purposes, but you can't change the wheelbase, and specifically the front-center. you can change nothing below the head tube.

for this reason, i'd ride a size L in a speed concept but a size M in a speedmax. this isn't just a speedmax thing. i'd also ride a size M in a dimond.

you all are about to get a little help on this. because of the heavy interest in canyon tri bikes here, and because canyons are about to become a lot more available in the US, and because this is a consumer-direct brand, and you don't have your LBS in the middle guiding you (which may be a good thing, actually, depending on your LBS), i've enlisted some help in matching you to the canyon you need. this will become apparent to you all quite soon.

Yes good correction - all that should read pad stack (to top of arm pad) and pad reach (to centre of arm pad). I'll edit up the original.

This is great info, thank you!

I'm actually between those two machines (Speedmax VS Speed concept). It all will depend on the stock/lead time... if I miss the next Canyon re-stock chance, I'll go with the Trek since I cannot wait for another 3/4 months to get the bike!

Thank you again.

Adding the rest of the info I found when researching this, hopefully useful to others

2018 vs 2019 basebar / extensions
Tri-rig posted the CAD for the difference between the 2018 bars (separate pedestals) vs the 2019 (one central pedestal) here. 2019 basebar is slightly narrower and the possible pad stack range is different.

2018 vs 2019 bottles.
2018 is in this youtube video. The 2019 is shown in this Tririg article

2019 arm pad width
The max width is the same for both 2018 and 2019. Standard width is 187mm (c-c), the narrowest with the 2019 bar is 86mm (c-c)

2018 possible pad stacks (top)
Posted by Teeman earlier in this thread.
N.B. the Drop base bar allows you to mount the extensions below the base bars. The pad stack for the drop bar with the extensions above the bar is 592 in size L.

Copied:
basebar, S, M, L:

  • Riserbar 567-647 595-675 629-709
  • Flatbar 542-622 570-650 604-684
  • Dropbar 504-610 532-638 566-672

2019 possible pad stacks (top)
A Size L has a pad stack range of 630-675. The Tririg article said you can increase that by another 10mm with spacers above


2018 possible pad reaches (centre)
N.B. I think the 2019 frame gives the same measurement ranges.


Large frame:

  • 65mm stem: 484 - 538 N.B. you need the "Team Switch plate" to get the smaller reaches e.g. without, the reach possible here is 511-538

  • 85mm stem: 504 - 558

Medium frame:

  • 65mm stem: 462 - 516

  • 85mm stem: 482 - 536


Speedmax CF SLX 2018 build options are here
Speedmax CF SLX 2018 user manual is here. Team switch plate is page 56 and angled spacer kit is page 57

When you order, someone from Canyon confirms all the details with you to get the bike configured as you would like. Mine should be around 4-5 weeks from order to delivery in the UK.

2018 possible pad reaches (centre)
N.B. I think the 2019 frame gives the same measurement ranges.


Large frame:

  • 65mm stem: 484 - 538 N.B. you need the "Team Switch plate" to get the smaller reaches e.g. without, the reach possible here is 511-538

  • 85mm stem: 504 - 558

Medium frame:

  • 65mm stem: 462 - 516

  • 85mm stem: 482 - 536


Speedmax CF SLX 2018 build options are here
Speedmax CF SLX 2018 user manual is here. Team switch plate is page 56 and angled spacer kit is page 57

When you order, someone from Canyon confirms all the details with you to get the bike configured as you would like. Mine should be around 4-5 weeks from order to delivery in the UK.

This is GREAT info, thank you so much, I wasn’t aware of lot of this stuff...

Do you happen to know if we will have those “built options” in USA as well?

I don't for definite, but I'd expect so. 1.) I'd expect the same choice of stems, accessories etc that you dont get the option to select yourself on the ecommerce site and 2.) I was told all the bikes were built specific to the order in Germany before shipping out.

You could email Canyon and ask? I found they were super responsive and helpful.
