Great vid guys! Happy to help anyone looking to get sized up before they buy 😊
How have I just found y'all!?!?!
This is really well done!
Thanks 🙏🏿🙏🏿🎉🎉❤❤😊
I’m glad it could help!
Very helpful info! As reference I'm 185cm tall, 89 inseam and my Canyon Ultimate in L fits.e perfectly, also with a 12cm stem.
How did you get 12cm stem with L size bike? L sizes always come with 11cm stem. They offer 12cm stems only in XXL :/
@@gorgosvk12 I bought the stem separately when I was running the separate bar and stem. Then I upgraded to the H31 cockpit and they offered various sizes and 12cm as well
@@fede1275 Federico thanks for info! I'm 187cm and 89 (almost as you), thinking about buying aeroad in L size. It's a shame it can only be purchased with 110mm stem, but I hope it will be okay.
@@gorgosvk12 Yes, I believe it will be the correct size, I believe I have long arms as well, so the 12cm fits me a bit better. Also I don't know the shape of the new bar, maybe they have a different reach. Both standard and H31 have short reach.
I'm same height but with 83 cm seat height. Not sure which size is best
Good tips!!!
Good video. Since you had so many Canyon bikes, does Caynon tend to be smaller/right at the size/larger than other brands?
It tends to be about the same as other brands I have found but the top tube tends to measure a bit longer for a lot of their bikes. Especially the ultimate and the aeroad.
I love Aeroad design but Canyon geometry is not ideal for me. I m 182 cm, 87. My size is… ML.
@@albertoscandola268 m is too Sporty Form the saddle elevation. L would fit better I Think, But Maybe With 100mm in the Front. I am 183 with 886 inseam. I wanted to Buy M. I tested the Aeroad. M didn't fit me. The seat post was over maximum for me and the seating position was also too extreme.
However, the Canyon website recommends M. And the geometry data also shows an incorrect maximum seat height at M (up to 810 cm can't be right). My seat height is 780 cm. By the way: The endurace in M would fit…
178, 84, upper body 61, arms 66 and I bought the ultimate cf sl in medium, it fits perfect for me, perhaps this can help someone.
Thank you! Every bit of information helps
Perfect!! Thank you so much. mine is in transit and I’ve been stressing about choosing the Medium over Small.
I’m the exact same measurements. It recommends a small but I think medium is the right choice. Thanks 🙏 ahh it recommends different sizes between road and gravel.
Hello! I'm currently looking to get a Canyon Endurance 7 AL, according to Canyon's size guide, my ideal size is XS. That said, I'm not sure if I should get the bike in XS because the road bike I'm riding now, the Trek Domane AL 2 is a size smaller than the recommended size. Please kindly advise me. Thank you very much! I look forward to your response!
Hey, Canyons in the past have generally come out a little large for their size.
Have you managed to compare your current geometry to the canyon geometry? That should be able to show if the canyon is the same size as yours currently
@@cyclingunboxed thanks so much for replying!! Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to do so. I’ll be sure to measure it and see how they both compare
Hi im 177 cm and 81,5 size recommended is S and M, it will be my first bike so I dont have a bike to compare, for the Canyon endurance 7, you think M is the way to go?
For the endurance, I would say yes to the M. It’s more true to size. For the ultimate and aeroad, they tend to come out a little large.
Just incase though I would go to any bike shop and just try to fit on a 56 (canyon M) and check. You can then get the measurements of that bike online and then compare. Just so in your head you know the right size is coming
im going to buy a spectral:on cf 2023 - im 172cm with 81cm inseam length. Canyon calculator say i should go for S. But im in between do you think i should go for M?
Unfortunately I am not so experienced with the mountain bike range. The road bike range though tend to come up a bit bigger and the size so a lot of people size down.
If you are in between sizes I think go for the S. you can always buy components to make things like the stem longer. And you get a slightly lighter bike.
I hope that helps!
i am the same meseaurements as you. I bought an ultimate in a small. The xs felt really cramped.
Hello so I wanted to buy the ultimate cf sl 8 aero I am 1.64 and 75.6 so canyon recommended 2xs however my only concern are the 650b wheels do you think its wise to size up to an xs just to get the 700c?? Any help would be appreciated thanks 🙏
The best thing to do is to measure your current bike compared to the canyon geometry measurement.
If you can just about fit or if it’s very close on the lager size then I would go for it just to make that one aspect easier.
@@cyclingunboxed thanks for replying in the first place, right now my bike is a van rysel edr size s its too big tho should be xs and watching the geometry from the xs van rysel and canyon xs its fairly similar i just dont wna make the same mistake as I did being too stretched out you know…
It’s going to be a tough call.
The ultimate is a fairly long bike as well. It will be more stretched out than the EDR. The ultimate and Aeroad also tend to come out slightly large as well so that’s something to keep in mind.
Other options:
Bike fit. A bike fit on a rig that can be infinitely adjusted will let you find the exact measurements that you need. And then you can compare those to the two canyon sized. It’s fairly pricey but nothing compared to buying the wrong bike!
If you do end up with 650b wheel, continental do do a 650b gp5000 str which is my main road bike tyre that I like to run.
One of the fastest tyres you can buy with good puncture resistance.
If you have any more thoughts let me know!
@@cyclingunboxed bike fit will be hard since I already have the wrong size edr 🤣
I will make some more research and if anything ill update you thanks again for the help 💪
1:44 like how the GoPro went GoAmateur, locing it!
No go pros here. Just hand held phone
Hi! I'm looking for Aeroad 8 CF SLX. Im 184 cm and 85 cm leg. Considering M or L. Which one do you recommend?
do you have a current bike you can compare the geometry too?
Canyons tend to come out a little large and long (Aeroad and ultimate specifically) so sizing down on those models might be better.
If you don’t have a current bike to compare, I would really recommend just finding any bike of any brand in a shop and trying it first to for the right size. You can then compare the measurements of that bike to the canyon ones. All brands should have a geometry section online.
I hope that helps a bit. I don’t want to be the one responsible for getting you the wrong sized bike 😬
Size down, M is better.
Hi!! I am 175cm with 83 inseam I really want a bike that is only available in M right now. Should I wait for S or will I be okay with M? Is it okay if it is slightly “too big?” I do not have a bike to compare to currently.
This is going to be a tough one.
Canyons tend to come out a little large and long (Aeroad and ultimate specifically) so sizing down on those models might be better.
For the others, sticking with the M is probably your best bet.

I truly appreciate your extended response. I decided to go with a different Canyon bike in a S. Your video, along with other experiences, helped me come to that conclusion. Thank you, and I hope you’re having a great day!
struggling with sizing, 183cm and 86. Sizing like between M and L. M always out of stock, so thinking about to order L, but maybe better to wait?
Which model are you thinking of going for?
If you have longer legs and a shorter body, then the M is your best bet. And vice versa
Canyons tend to come up a little large as well.
The medium will be a bit lighter and if you need can just pop a longer stem on there/ swap out for a longer cockpit.
This is if you have the flexibility.
Have you also managed to measure up your current bike and compare it to the geometry charts?
@tychonoff-n have you bought one? I‘m struggling with the same thing, 183,5 and 86…
hi, it would be helpful to know how tall Laura is for reference as the majority of people will probably consider between a S and M size. also do you know what the minimum bar width was able to be set at on Laura's size M? i'm guessing 39cm but the Canyon website is unclear on that. thanks!
Good suggestion for next time. Will add it into the description for now.
She is riding the bars at 390mm. You have the choice of 3.
390
410
430
I hope that helps.
@@cyclingunboxed appreciate the quick response. keep up the great work!
I have 28 inches/71 cm inseam, is 2xs the right Endurace for me?
Unfortunately I can’t say as I am on the lager side of the canyons.
Its best to measure your current bike and compare the geometry to what canyon have on their website and see where you fit best
How a Canyon Ultimate S compare with the Giant TCR M?
The canyons tend to come out just a little large but it is best to compare the geometry they have on their websites. I still haven’t had a Giant on the channel
Also, what was that camera strap @1:45???
It is actually just the standard strap that came with the Sony a6000 camera.
I have a friend who uses a much more professional strap here: th-cam.com/video/KVSjYiXesN8/w-d-xo.html&feature=sharea
is there anyone here with a height of 176cm, if so, what size did you buy? I want to buy Aeroad CF SL 8. Canyon recommends size S to me
Do you have a current bike you can compare the geometry to?
In 6 feet tall would a medium be too small for me ?
The best way to know is to compare your current hikes measurements to the ones on the canyon website.
It sounds about right but I can say if that will be correct or not as I don’t know your body’s measurements I.e long legs, short body.
I’m 177cm 82 cm i right between S and M so should i buy the S, i’m scared it will be too small for me
Which canyon model are you looking at?
And do you have a current bike you can compare the geometry too?
Canyons tend to come out a little large and long (Aeroad and ultimate specifically) so sizing down on those models might be better.
For the others, sticking with the M is probably your best bet.

@@cyclingunboxed I want the Aeroad CF SlX 7 in 105 Di2, I do have a 54 cm frame that fits me i can compare
@@cyclingunboxed But what is your recommendation?
If the 54 fits you, it’s likely the S will fit you best.
I would still compare the measurements first with a tape measure. You can just copy the ones on the canyon website on the Aeroad page
@@cyclingunboxed Thank you!!!
Buy whatever Canyon's sizer says you should. They know better than anybody.
The height and inseam measurements are not enough to decide what size you should choose. In case you have shorter legs than average of people of let's say 182cm height and longer body /arms than average of people of same height this will surely make the size L better for you than the size Canyon suggested you to buy
I agree.Canyon's sizing charts are designed for someone spending under $1200. Comparing your existing bike make no sense at all because you may want an entirely different type of bike.
What if I want my first bike to be a Canyon?
Definitely go for the hire for a day approach if you are around London. Then you can really get a feel for the size. Otherwise you could go try some bikes out and find the measurements for them and compare them to the canyon website? Also their own size guide should still get you very close.
@@cyclingunboxed I’m located in Belgium… so being around London would be… atypical ☹️
@@steffpeetersEr is een Service center in Rotselaar waar je ook fietsen kan testen. Op zaterdag moet je een afspraak maken, maar op de rest van de dagen kan je gewoon langsgaan tijdens de openingsuren
Looking forward to the next video, "Canyon sent us a new bike, we're unopening it today!".
Enjoy! It’s so much fun!

Done, let me know if this has worked.
I'm 6ft 1 and a 33 inch inseam and canyon recommends a medium, I ride a 58cm road bike but canyon doesn't give you specs.
May be right. Canyons do come up a little bit larger. On all of their bikes on the website, they have a geometry and dimensions section that you should be able to compare to your current bike.
I'm exactly your measurements. Did you get the right size. I'm also looki😢😅
I am going to buy a large grizzle and let you @@Dustydayzz
Size matters . . . hmm🤔🤔 Finally a couple admits it!
First, you have to get the AAA-HHHoles at Canyon to reply to a few questions when you are going to spend several thousand dollars or pound or other currency, or whatever. I did not get a reply to my questions.
