I'll believe it when I see it. That's been said many years/times before. :noidea:

Maybe it is just the Speedmax for now? Large tri consumer base here in the USA. Maybe road and MTB follow after that.



I got that info directly from Canyon's designer Lucas, one of two engineers on the Speedmax. He said the info on sales was not yet public but that I was now free to share it. International sales begin Dec 1, with US sales by the end of December. He seemed to indicate they would be in stock and shipping at that time.

I waited for my Aeroad (ordered July) for 5 weeks. This supposed to be the period where bike are in full stock. It was debut early in 2014..... Most Canyon bikes have wait time. They rarely have popular size in stock. I know for a fact that Giant produces Canyon bikes. Not sure why they can't build as fast as any other brand (or their own brand). I am sure Canyon places enough volume or perhaps it's eating into Giant's sale? their bikes kinda hit the same market. That said, having to wait 5 months for a new bike is bs. I hope expanding market they already have supply chain issue sorted out.

i really don't understand how canyon can sell bikes to mexicans and NOT canadians..wtf.


canyon get your manufacturing/distribution sorted..

arrival of canyon will force the big four brands in the usa (giant/spec/trek/cannondale) to lower there prices..

Simple, supply and demand. There isn't as much demand for the bikes in Mexico versus the US/Canadian market.
