CANYON BIKES SHOCK ME AGAIN!! *2025 CANYON AEROAD CFR* 

I have to eat my words again, and say that canyon made a phenomenal bike and put in some great upgrades for consumers, defiantly thinking outside the box.

It is shame Canyon still doesn't offer custom stem and crank length. They should let customer choose those option with ordering.

always appreciate you doing these. your customers are fortunate that you can speak with experience on a very diverse range of bikes.

Bought a CF SLX 7 a few weeks ago. It rides very well and the geometry was spot on for me coming from my old open mold frame. This include the new PACE bars which I have at minimum width with the tilted in hoods. That adjustable width is a game changer without having to disconnect anything..

Like Skoda - Simply clever! 👍

i just cross tested this bike(slx 8), trek madone gen 8 and the giant propel advanced pro 0. this is the one i liked the most and i think i will buy when it will get available again in november. before the test, i was very hyped about the madone gen 8, but at the end was the one that i liked less. the aeroad looks bulky, but when you ride it it’s light and nimble, but at the same time very planted when you get crosswind conditions. i think that canyon engineers found the right formula, at least for me they did 😊

My cycling friends are partial to Cannondale, Trek, Specialized, etc. I ended up getting a Canyon Endurace to start and still love the bike, but wanted something racier for short fast rides. Ended up buying a 2023 Aeroad SLX 7 w/ 105 Di2. After a couple of mods it's down into 16 lb territory and is a blast to ride. Ended up getting both bikes for under $10k, including some Lun Hyper D45 and D67 wheelsets. I do wish I had the nice to have features of the new Aeroad, but with the sale pricing the last gen was a better value overall.

buyer beware: Wow look at the nice new shiny bike, it’s a beautiful piece of German engineering, but I want to let you know of my experience with Canyon Aeroad CF SL8. I too was delighted with the thought of a sophisticated bike at a reasonable price point. It came with a 6 year warranty, but that warranty is useless. I have logged over 30 thousand miles on my Specialized Allez with no major issues, I have replaced the gear cable for the rear derailleur a couple of times and the tires only once. My 11 month canyon had to have the bottom bracket replaced after only 5,000 miles. I reported this to Canyon and they are blaming me for not taking proper care of my bike. I loved this bike and looked after it accordingly. Washed at least once a week (no pressure wash) locked in the garage overnight and stored in the basement during the winter. After finding a mechanic who would repair my bike (most technician won’t ever look at a Canyon) he told me that the bottom bracket is a cheap one that has no seal against water and debris intrusion. It breaks my heart to have to write this but if I can at least help one person with this it will be worth it. Canyon did offer me a $75.00 voucher on their web site but to me thats useless.

Stop shaking the scale! 😂

Aeroad keeps getting better and better! $6,599 for the CF SLX 8 Di2. Once again, huge W for Canyon.

Hard to argue with what Canyon is doing in price to performance. I wish for two things: 1) the handlebar attachments were underneath and the top looked like Mathieu van der Poel's TdF bike (flat with white writing), and 2) you could just choose which handlebar you wanted at the time of purchase - straight or the aero PACE ones (same price, just choose). As it is now, I think you have to buy it with the straight ones and then also buy the aero ones. I guess the bonus wish would be the choice of aero bottles like Orbea, Trek, etc.

Wish there was a frameset option. PF BB is a bit disappointing. Overall a good release from canyon!

that’s a dream bike to me

"More lighter" - "More beefier" - " more faster cassette", my god. English teacher dying inside.

Great video. Too many people complaining 🤔. For Florida this bike must rip!!!

Canyon spec bikes better than any other manufacturer.

Sorry for the bike shop 😢 I don't like Zipp hoockless... but i love Sram Red and good power meter but i love the bike

The words "$10K bike" and "Great Value" .... do not belong together.

I love this bike.

Everything being the wrong size: Fork, chainring, stem, handlebar, saddle, wheels, cranks... what's the point of a complete bike, canyon needs to offer a frameset only option. 😂

i wish it was still an AERO bike, as the name suggests, not another „allrounder“…

Super Sweet bike!

Thanks for the overview....i think most of us know all of this based on the PR and info on the Canyon website. What most folks want to know is how does it ride, what are the bikes characteristics, how does it feel compared to the previous model, how does it climb, how does this bike stack up against the Ultimate, which is shares geometry with? We can all read the spec sheets on bikes, it's some more of the subjective parts that i feel most people want to know. I didn't buy this bike 2 years ago because of the handlebar recalls and went with another Aero bike but now i'm interested to see how they've made progress on the development of this with the latest refresh but want to hear less about the marketing and more about the overall feel.

But would you want to replace the brake cables or headset bearings???? It will have to happen eventually. What about the headset bearings. Will we have to buy those from canyon…. Will they even be available for consumers in the future?

You've been doing curls. Nice!

there is also a ceramicspeed BB on it 😊

Hold up grant. Early in vid you said consumer can adjust hb height.. Slam etc. Does this mean no more going to lbs adjusting height then ride with chimney than have them cut it etc? If we adjust ourself is it always flat?

Hello Mark! have a question for you, it's almost obvious to me that this bike is no UDH compatible, can you tell us something about it? because some new bikes are and some doesn't. Do you think there's a future for it in road bikes? is tarmac sl8? thanks and kind regards...

But can I fit my Varia radar to it? Not going anywhere without that thing! 😀

No customer service, no choice of bars,stem, chain rings, crank length (on first order) and colour choice is poor. Still would prefer to demo a bike at local bike shop and make sure it fits.

GC: "CANYON BIKES SHOCK ME AGAIN!! " Wow! Even the non-e-Bikes are an electrical nightmare!

🔥

Pirelli TLR race tires on n hookless rims. Hope you have good health insurance.

My next bike! 🤩

you forgot to mention the dork disc specs

I like but i have a double think and have to go with Giant for their special carbone flexy fork comfort and TCR is gen 10, Aeroroad is only gen 5? 🤔

they nailed it🙂

damn... I need a replica for this 😂 Sick bike!

$10 k no way,like the aeroroad,I have a ultimate ,I like the white or purple or gray(as seen in the tdf) color,too many black bikes out there..but $10k id rather buy another sportbike

So heavy though. They need to get their shit together. 7.14 for a small bike without pedals and cages it way too much.

I still cant get my head around such a lovely and expensive bike without a bike fit in a store.

I don't get it, this bike is having rave reviews and it is about as aerodynamic as a brick compared to the Dare. Take a look at the TT machines in the Olympics. The bulk of them have frame hugging tubing. This thing has gaps that I could park an A380 in.

Are Canyon bikes still running a size larger than other brands? For example I have an Ultimate size M but measures like a 56.

I know it's going against the grain and I really appreciate what Canyon is offering for bang for dollar. But I just prefer to do business with a local bike shop. Its just far easier and less hassle to have any issues taken care of. Especially for newer riders. Just my 2c.

with pedals & bottle cages will definitely go up to 7.4 kg, I wish it were lighter.

May I ask what’s the owner height and inseam? 😊

Canyon omits retailers - l omit Canyon.

Why do they stick to their ugly design? Ugliness + zipp wheels + SRAM groupset... maybe this is bought by guys driving Volvo cars...

Bottle Cage bolts are NOT t25

Big gaps between wheel and frame. Stickers look really dated too.

This is such a good package that is almost no brainer if you wanna buy a top end bike. Lower models are very good too 😎

you can tell the sport of cycling is growing because now bike brands are catering towards brainless consumers

handlebar looks terrible with that light mount

Canyon still fits DUB into BB86...

That computer mount is very ugly

More lighter, stonks 👍👍

Whole bike is T25 to make it easier for customer to adjust. Lmaooo how

Wow@! I can literally see your face of rage as a customer walks through the front doors, chest out, and rolling a new 2025 Canyon CFR. Your face turns red as you cross your arms and shout, how dare you!@ Gotta Laugh, I'm in retail myself, and I've been there and witnessed that.

Why would you put a 1x on a race bike in a place where there are no hills or mountains? Ah, because it looks “cool. 🙄

Does it hold its speed well?

A bike brand that's all about value speccing their product with wheels that are all about a brand name. There could have been better choices

Canyon bikes are disposable though.

I love this bike 🙌 and the price

Nice review but its just another same, same carbon bike like hundreds of others. I personally also think its rather ugly (like many of its same, same carbon copies). In other words, its getting very boring. Of course not your fault.

4500 USD cheaper than a sworks sl8 .

Is this a S size aeroad?

454 come with 28stock tyre? Has Zipp not learn their lesson yet? ffs, still shipping 28c after they change their compatible chart to 29c is the minimum? What a JOKE.

Hookless and press fit BB 👎. The rest 👍

3-5k cheaper than the big 3...

The handlebar is ugly as fuck. This groove for the mount or tt bars ruins the whole thing. Epic fail for me.

first!

Those shit Zipp hookless wheels …. No thanks

When you buy this bike for $10.5K Canyon includes a free certified moron certificate.

it ugly. it look like ebike

Dull design.

Don’t know why but I just don’t like how Canyon bikes look. They just seem plasticy, a bit too bulky and kind of amateur. I wonder how popular would they be if not MVDP.

Torx bolts suck and I wish manufacturers of all products and goods would quit using them.

Dura Ace version is $9,999 and it comes with the crap Shimano power meter. Hookless rims, not for me. GPLama's review of the power meter ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1KmpgWVgDs4.html&pp=ygUaZ3BsYW1hIHNoaW1hbm8gcG93ZXIgbWV0ZXI%3D
