you can order 7x9 rail saddle clamps from canyon too.
wiring and cable entry
the charging port access
the glossed-over chainstay gives me an idea on a future refinish

What's the "zip tie" looking on the rear tub?
Just looks like some kind of pattern in the tub though?

Refering to those perpendicular black lines on the tubular. Never saw that before indeed.

That is entirely up to you It is just that seeing the picture of you on the bike reminded of the Specialized wind tunnel video where they measured almost as much aero gain from shaved legs as they did from switching from a round-tube frame to an aero frame.

By the way, would you mind if I put a picture of your bike on my blog?

FL, you have totally nailed it! I can't stop looking at this! (Micropox's as well!)
The red is such a beautiful colour.
As another person eyeing off an Aeroad, I'd love to hear about the ride also?

another nice build and tasteful selection of parts...wondering if you had any thoughts on the "maintenance" aspect of the matte red finish.

Stunning looking frame. Love the that rear derailleur cable hole + hanger mount.
