Just looking for recommendations before I press the button in Feb, I'm tempted to stretch for the SLX, but I kind of know, if I do, I'll end up scraping it across the tarmac at the first Maindy crit of the season....

Looking at the 9.0 CF realistically, anyone got one?

No helpful advice, but if you do buy post a review! I'm contemplating a road bike for next season and the canyon CF is on the list.

Not a posh one but i took a punt last year on the Canyon Roadlite which came with full 105/Ultegra for only £870 and it's a fabulous bike.

I can highly recommend Canyon to deal with and can only assume that their more expensive bikes will be even better still.

Go for it, i'm sure you won't regret it.

My mate has, and I've got the aeroad. we both love them! He raves about it every ride, light and very stiff. One thing, he is 6'4 and the online size calculator was way off, he went two sizes bigger than what was recommended

Thanks Warton, I've read a few things about the online size guide, I'm measuring off my current commute and a 56 looks about right,
I'm usually a 54.

Ta MrTall - Longterm I'm looking at a Roadlite as a good winter trainer / second bike.

Nice bikes, very nice. Tempted but I've got a Parlee and well if I didn't, the aeroad would be the one for me.

I think bike radar have just done a review on the aeroad..
