If you live near southern California, be aware that Canyon has a beautiful showroom in Carlesbad, CA which is located north of San Diego. They will size you and have some bikes available to test ride. You cannot buy a bike there, but you can buy accessories.
Super helpful perspective, thank you. I'm just getting back into cycling and just came across Canyon.. will definitely be considering one when I comes time to upgrade.
I took delivery of a brand new Aeroad CFR. TO emphasize, it it the top end road bike for Canyon. I received one DT Swiss ARC1100 50mm and a 62mm wheel. I was told by Canyon that it would not affect aerodynamics; this is BS... I'd like @DT Swiss to publically agree to that statement and thereby call BS on their own claims and rationale for have difference width rims. Canyon person further threw "our terms and conditions" BS at me, say they allow Canyon to switch parts due to shortages. They have done this simply because they know that as a foreigner, I am unlikely to take action against them. I conclude therefore that this is Canyon modus operandi, that is to switch to lower price options that suit them. At no point was I consulted if I would agree to a swap to a cheaper 50mm wheel. This is my last Canyon. i'd rather pay double for a Dogma, even if I cant afford it.
Hi there, started looking into Canyon bikes recently and came across you video. Great info; and great, honest presentation. Thank you. Appreciated your video. New sub.
Thank you for the video. I am from Malaysia and am considering to buy an e-bike maybe one of the ON series from Canyon. Looking forward to your review video.
I went to Koblenz to see their showroom. I was only looking to test and feel the pathlite on. I didn't even have an appointment. The service was so damn good. They even took my measurements. I have short legs for my height and they said they'll make the frame custom made at no extra cost! I was sold at that point! They shipped the bike and I had 14 days to test return. 4 years later I'm still riding the bike and this time with a Thule ride along attached to it. 😁 I always tell people if they have time and is looking for a bike. I advice to check Canyon and visit them in Koblenz. It's worth the trip. P,ease make an advanced appointment so you'll get the full treatment.
I bought a Canyon Ultimate CF SL size XL in 2019. It was a very straight forward and simple process. The whole process from order to delivery took about 3 weeks. I live in SoCal not far from their warehouse here. From the moment I clipped in, I knew it was the bike for me. I love it!
Canyon should pay you. Because of your review I am buying a Canyon. Thank you for being thorough. Wow. I liked your final points greatly because I use bike repair shops for most of my maintenance.
Love & Peace. Nice name, my mantra. The Exceed Is a beautiful machine. I bought mine before the wonderful new design. It hopefully still has the classic geo and XC characteristics.
Hi Heng Choo, appreciate your video I was about to buy my first Endurance bike and Canyon was on my top list your information was very helpful specially I haven’t give a good thought about the shipping cost and warranty issue, cheers keep up the good work
I would love it if a Canyon rider that is 5'7" tall with a 29-30 inch inseam could tell me what size they ride. I entered this onto the Canyon website and it told me I need an XS. That makes me nervous because in mountain bikes I an typically a medium, and on a road bike I'm typically a 51-52.
I ordered a Canyon Endurace CF 7 Di2. I ordered it from their US store. I'm using a shipping forwarder (sea cargo) since I live here in the Philippines (shipped to the overseas USA warehouse), so I'll have to wait another 1-2 months before it arrives. This helps me save on shipping fees and customs duties and taxes. I'm really hoping there are no issues when I get the bike in hand, as it's going to be really hard to return or refund anything. Thanks for this video!
I'm living in Indonesia and I find that your situation is pretty similar to what I have in mind. Any updates on your bike? I'm kinda scared shipping the bike via forwarder lol
So far the updates and communication has been good with the shipping forwarder I used. But I used sea cargo (300+ USD) that would take around 2 months to get here, as opposed to air cargo (1000+ USD) which would take 1 week. Haha. I went with sea cargo. The bike should arrive next week. So the waiting time has been around 2 months or so.@@TheBTada
Hi , I was worried about the tax , buying online and deliver to Malaysia , seems the transport company will declare for me and I only make the payment only , thanks for the info bro
As a bike shop owner I can tell you we don’t turn down a customer simply because the bicycle was not purchased at our store. Nor do we up charge for repairs or work on bicycles not purchased at our store. We do work on bicycles in the order they arrive but it is not uncommon to push a bicycle ahead of the line if it was purchased at our shop. Working on a Canyon is no different than working on any other bicycle. We did have a customer wait several months for a set of unique bearings to the upper linkage on an aluminum dual suspension canyon that made a symphony while under pedal load from day one. We’ve also work on canyon road bikes that suffer from the headsets constantly loosening. And one canyon road bike that the bottom bracket shell was out of spec on one side. The bike creaked under pedal load. Every time the bicycle owners were overwhelmed because they had to deal with the issue themselves directly with canyon. We did our part by documenting the issue in order to help the customers deal with warranty but had they purchased a bicycle from an independent bicycle retailer they wouldn’t have had to deal with any of the stress. It would be out of their hands and handled by the dealer. We all make decisions for what we believe to be best.
I wanted one and I talked to them about it, the cost of getting the bike to me was going to be 2.5 times the cost of the bike itself so I never replied back.
Heng: I may have missed it, but did you consider Giant (like the Defy)? Have you had any quality control or safety concerns on the Canyon? I'm wondering if I should stick to steel since Ive read about Carbon frames snapping. What's been your experience so far?
I didn’t add Defy in my consideration back then as that’s a endurance bike and I was looking for a gravel bike. With that, Defy are a great bike tho if you are looking for endurance bike. For carbon frame, as long as you go for reputable brand who provide worry free (warranty or certain program) and you should be fine. I haven’t see any carbon frame snap by itself, only seen a few snap carbon frame after crash. I guess even with steel frame going under that crash it will render the steel frame to non rideable too.
Just bought a specialized but wanted canyon and now I’m certain next time I’ll be getting a canyon But I do find it strange regarding parts and the way they may make money out of you if something does go wrong in the future plus I’ll also be worrried about workshops and to whether they will beable to fix anything on a canyon. Plus when I looked on the website they seem to do a wide range of drop bar bikes but only a few flat bar hybrids
Thank you Heng! Do you mind me asking how tall you are? iam having so much trouble deciding as obviously we can not try it out for hight :( I really want this bike but sizing is hard that im considering other brand
If you can get a bike sizing service locally, where they can use their fitting bike to crank up to grail sizing will be the best. I’m 168cm if that help 😁
Informative video, good stuff. I do worry about the maintenance- but if bicycle shops accept Canyon then I'm ok to pay a small premium. With the e-bike offerings, do you know if there is anything I should specifically take note on?
The maintenance part might be a problem if you are at smaller town/city but if you are at urban metropolis, shouldn't be a problem to get any modern bike shop to service a Canyon
I don't like bikes from Canyon... I first bought the Neuron, then the Strive a year after, then the Spectral the following year.. now thinking of buying the Torque or Grail.. yeah I don't like them. Lol.😅
One thing that annoys me a bit is the lack of customisation. I want to get a pathlite model but it comes with a bosch purio display (no GPS function), for all models apart from the flagship model which cost EUR5000! It would be better if they didnt include it at all, and left it to the customer to choose for the non-flagship models.
I guess that’s a downside for a complete bike. I’m sure they will have customisation once they figure out as they are really serious about their customer journey experience
any competent bike shop can handle canyon. the reason many local bike shop do not want to deal with them is their dtc marketing at least here in stateside.
Yeap, that only applicable to smaller independent bike shop that doesnt expose to newer technology. Some bike shop at here in Malaysia doesnt take in Canyon but not in the case if it's a major city
This bike was really easy to assemble th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
Have you gotten any parts from canyon or use the warrantee before? Was it difficult like some people says online. Its causing me a bit of concerns. Thank you for the great videos. I love the details!
Your address is visible in this video! Often times, you can put a positive balance on your credit card. I'd recommend that for buying this instead of doing direct transfer.
HI bro, thanks for your video, finally i found a video who talking about how to purchase canyon. But i got some question here need to ask you, i going to buy a canyon ultimate complete bike to malaysia johor, do i need to pay any tax for it?
I’m considering buying a road lite 7 but I’m not sure about the size, I’m barely 5’ 6” with a 29” inseam and the website puts me at xs but I don’t know if the xs comes with the 650 wheels. I ride small on specialized and small/medium on trek.
like all the canyon bikes except the wheel size for 2XS and XS. they always put smaller wheel for shorter rider. Many other brands can accommodate 700c wheel for the shorter rider, there is really no valid reason why Canyon has to size down the wheels. They can ship the bike with 650b but design the bike to officially accept 700c wheels, but Canyon official reply is 2XS and XS can't accept 700c which can void warranty. Hopefully Canyon can rethink their product strategy. It is far easier for 700c rider to seek help from others than 650b.
Personally I think that 650b does provide a better geometry for smaller rider but u fortunately the market doesn’t really serve us as main market. Good thing is I can still slap on 700c. Currently do 700c for road and 650b for gravel
@@scoutfai I’m using 28c but measure at 30mm on my rim. Judging from the clearance 32-34mm shouldn’t be a problem. But there’s a slight toe overlap with 700c wheel
Hi, I purchased my first canyon bike yesterday using prepayment same as you. Where did you see the swift code of their bank? Also is prepayment can be arranged to installment? Thank you for this video, it helped me to answer alot of questions.
Hi, I email them to double check the swift code. Also I don't think prepayment can be convert to instalment as it's direct tt transfer. You can check with your bank to have more info,.
I noticed that xs2 size has smaller wheels will that effect your group ride meaning it wont hold speed as 700c ? My height is 164 and canyon adviced me to go 2xs am looking for endurace cf sl
Hello, love the vid!! Just curious about the stocks of the bicycles on their website. Did you buy the the gravel bike right after they restocked? Did it quickly went out of stock?
I was lucky as I order before it went out of stock. Even that I have waited 3 months until the bike are shipped. With the current demand yes i will say it's usually quickly went out of stock
@@HengChooChian Thanks for answering!! What’s your rough estimate on how many days/weeks will canyon be out of stock after they restock this coming September.
F Canyon. I tried contacting them with a few buying questions via email/their own internal website messaging, and I either get no replies or a reply that had nothing to do with my question.
Great info sir, how to order one? I'm having a problem on logging in on my size sir the canyon website keep on refusing the size that I'm putting pls help me sir
Hi. Good sharing. When you pay via TT, do you issues like you need to pay extra due to additional charge imposed if the bank uses third party to complete the transaction? (not the service charge though)
Hi, what do you think about the canyon torque Al 5 27.5? I hear that canyon frames break easily and that canyon won’t cover it unless it was from delivery. Is this true?
Do you have grizl cf sl 7? Can I put thinner tires on this bike? You said you had that bike for off road and road, right? What is a minumim size for this rims?
May I ask do you know what is the season period for Canyon? Because the model Im looking for is currently out of stock, they replied me that stock for current season is out of stock, will have to wait for the next season. Do you have any idea when is the next season? Thank you.
I have a 2021 Grail in size XS with the 650b (27.5) wheels. I’m looking into buying a spare road wheel set, which 700c wheels did you fit on your grail?
Thanks for this video! I gave up on the Grail because they kept delaying delivery. I am considering the Pathlite, do you recommend it for commutes and riding around Singapore?
Hi, good video. Very informative. Question for you: did they include padals. If no, did you buy b4 your bicycle came or did you wait after you got your bicycle.
Hi, thanks! They don’t include pedal. Most performance bike come without pedal as pedal system are quite personal. I have my pedal before I order as this is not my first bike. If this is your first bike you can add pedal when you are buying from them
If you live near southern California, be aware that Canyon has a beautiful showroom in Carlesbad, CA which is located north of San Diego. They will size you and have some bikes available to test ride. You cannot buy a bike there, but you can buy accessories.
Thank you for your video. I did end up buying a Canyon Endurace CF7, two actually (bought outlet, easy return, bought new). I love the CF7!
There was more detail than I expected,somethings I didn't even think about.
Good job!
Most informative video on Canyon I've seen. Well done! Thank you.
Glad it help!

I was lucky as I order before it went out of stock. Even that I have waited 3 months until the bike are shipped.
With the current demand yes i will say it's usually quickly went out of stock
@@HengChooChian Thanks for answering!! What’s your rough estimate on how many days/weeks will canyon be out of stock after they restock this coming September.
Hello, Can you tell me why you cant change gallows and handlebar ? I buy one and I trully want to put a longer one on it.
You can change to a conventional design as long as the clamp at 1 1/4 but that will make the bike geometry very aggressive.
F Canyon. I tried contacting them with a few buying questions via email/their own internal website messaging, and I either get no replies or a reply that had nothing to do with my question.
had to do with you not Canyon....
Great info sir, how to order one? I'm having a problem on logging in on my size sir the canyon website keep on refusing the size that I'm putting pls help me sir
Hi, you can order directly from
Canyon website.
Do check the unit that you are using are same as your measurement tools
Bro, at 3:57, I think you meant “simulate”. Good video though! Keep it up
Yesss sorry for my bad English 😂
Hi. Good sharing. When you pay via TT, do you issues like you need to pay extra due to additional charge imposed if the bank uses third party to complete the transaction? (not the service charge though)
Only the service charges, nothing extra 😁
Really helped… was searching around for customs import duty for rb… so you really didnt get charged for any taxes for the bike?
Yeap, tax free for bike. I did paid a small amount for accessories, seatpost and mudguard
I use a 56cm Cannondale Super Six Evo 2015 and it's Perfect. I am 183CM, what size Canyon would be my equivalent? XL?
No sane person would swap Cannondale for Canyon. That's like going from Porsche to Hyundai.
Hi, what do you think about the canyon torque Al 5 27.5? I hear that canyon frames break easily and that canyon won’t cover it unless it was from delivery. Is this true?
Hi, no problem for my bike so far. I don think that the frame easily unless it’s a really big impact on it
Do you have grizl cf sl 7? Can I put thinner tires on this bike? You said you had that bike for off road and road, right? What is a minumim size for this rims?
Im using grail and i guess grizl can fit a road wheelset as well. Im using 650B for my gravel wheelset and 700c for my road wheelset
May I ask do you know what is the season period for Canyon? Because the model Im looking for is currently out of stock, they replied me that stock for current season is out of stock, will have to wait for the next season. Do you have any idea when is the next season? Thank you.
Hi, unfortunately I don have visibility to Canyon stock and you probably need to wait until they restock and update in website
@Ya Dad's Precum thank you for your advise! I couldn’t wait so I bought another model! But the order delayed.. can’t wait for my new bike!!
I have a 2021 Grail in size XS with the 650b (27.5) wheels. I’m looking into buying a spare road wheel set, which 700c wheels did you fit on your grail?
Im using dt Swiss r740, a rather entry level 700c wheel.
Thanks for this video! I gave up on the Grail because they kept delaying delivery. I am considering the Pathlite, do you recommend it for commutes and riding around Singapore?
For commuting, pathlite yes should be more than enough to use as commuting
Hi, good video. Very informative. Question for you: did they include padals. If no, did you buy b4 your bicycle came or did you wait after you got your bicycle.
Hi, thanks!
They don’t include pedal. Most performance bike come without pedal as pedal system are quite personal.
I have my pedal before I order as this is not my first bike. If this is your first bike you can add pedal when you are buying from them
What is reach " +W" mean on their geometry chart ?
Thanks
Most welcome!
Hi, can i use credit card for installment plan?
You probably can inform your bank to convert the transaction into instalment plan but that depends on your bank offer.
What is the diameter of the tires?
need to check can canyon Roadlite saddle seat lower?
Hi apologies I don have information about this. Best if you email to canyon 🙃
