If you have a Canyon, they should be willing to sell one to you. They're not available on their website but you can call or send them an email. If you don't have a Canyon, then I'm not sure why you'd want their stem in particular? How about a Ritchey WCS 4-Axis? They have the same length and angle.


My current Canyon V13 stem is too short. I need a 110mm. Just thought someone would be interested in selling one they don't use. Canyon doesn't have stock right now to sell individually.

Big difference while riding between frames? :)

Samuel: Yes, quite the difference between Ultimate AL and Aeroad CF SLX. Much less "buzz" and more comfort on the Aeroad. Also the fronts are very different, and they handle differently. That said I don't seem to notice much if any difference in stiffness in the rear or BB.

Why are all my bikes black?!

I ordered a headset cap for my Aeroad CF SLX February 12. Yesterday I received the order confirmation. Delivery? End of July. I'm guessing if I devoted some time to it I could set up a production facility somewhere in mainland China for that part way before the end of July! ;-)


I just called their sales representative here in Sweden and since they're located in the same town as me I could get it fixed in a couple of days. 8)

I have a question to Ultimate CF SLX owners. I was looking at my new frameset and I noticed an "indentation" on the seatpost collar (see photo). Is this normal ?

Not normal. It's an alloy part so no real danger, but I wouldn't be happy without a replacement.

@westbank

Apologies but can't respond to your pm (guess I don't have enough posts)

Got home and checked, the stem is only a 100mm not 110mm

In addition to my custom Ultimate CF SLX I have another Canyon for alternative training and marathon racing. It´s a 2014 Grand Canyon AL SLX 9.9 size Large. Completely stock, except for saddle (Selle Italia Flite Kit Carbonino Speciale) which is a perfect match for the green fluo accents on the frame.
