I’m in the US and I’ve been trying to buy a Speedmax CF 8 Disc since last November. In the beginning I thought the delays were due to Covid, then because of ships getting stuck in the Suez Canal, then the lack of capacity of American ports, materials, workers, etc… I also trusted their “Notify Me” feature but I quickly realized it wasn’t reliable. Then I tried using browser extensions to notify me of page changes, and more recently, I wrote my own script. What I noticed lately is: when it approaches the “due date”, it gets pushed back further and further.
Today, I decided to check the Canyon’s Canadian and Mexican websites. To my surprise, pretty much all models/sizes are available. From the cheaper CF7 to the most expensive Speedmax CF SLX, and everything in between. The Canadian site, even offers the Speedmax CF 8 without power meter for a more reasonable price. That’s exactly what I wanted!
My two questions to you all is:
- Has anybody been able to buy the Speedmax CF 8 in the US in the past few months?
- What’s going on? Are the bike getting sold out as soon as they become available and I’m missing that opportunity?
This is so frustrating.
