canyon aeroad 2015

Are they going to make a Movistar team version colours like the one bfno posted? This would tempt me because in the photo it's running with Campy. I would consider the Ultimate CF SLX but I'm waiting for a C60 and I'm not sure if that would be 'overlap' (although obviously still quite different). Theoretically I'd have each one in a separate county as I travel for work.

How is the Aeroad at climbing? I know it's not a 'climbing bike' per se, but I'm not one to buy into that too much. If anything climbing is my forte, so I actually need help in the flats!

Would love to see it with Campagnolo though, then I'd be sold. The Canyon website still just posts the red colour with Dura Ace.

I was told by a Canyon rep that the reason for no Campagnolo equipped aeroad was the brakes. They have to use Shimano direct Mount brakes. I know that Movistar uses them as well, but apparently There's an issue selling bikes with mixed Campagnolo and Shimano

I was considering buying a Aeroad team edition and refitting it with Campagnolo EPS, but "luckily" they are sold out and I have to wait on the new 2016 colors. I'm recovering from a torn achilles tendonso it's not a huge loss as I won't be riding anything the Next 2 - 4 months.

Saw one of these being ridden by one of the Uk canyon reps in the flesh. they look amazing. Nearly as good as my timemachine. but not quite

Thanks Martin.. Likewise, 'luckily' for me I'm in the US so I can't easily get one
I thought the brakes might have something to do with it. I'm thinking of either the Aeroad or a Cipollini RB1000 for my Dubai bike when I travel, but the Cipollini has a tiny head tube. The Canyon might be more practical.

Exciting! I don't think many people have got their hands on these yet as they are on a long waiting list as you say. A lot of people on here are from USA or Australia too which prohibits getting a canyon.

They're setting up an office here. I'd bet they'll release by Christmas.

Glory cycles made it seem like they are really trying to get them in an email the other day.

If Clive could keep the markup low (from import and his cut) that would be nice. Part of the allure of Canyon is the bang for the buck. But if you lose that aspect...
