Like all the CX bikes was. Canyon wanted (IMO) to be "different", but didn't find the right way for it This thing is exceptionally ugly. I'm judging from seeing it in person, not just images.

true, but the rest look much better. Lighter visually.
Don't remember brand ( American ? ) , bike from 2015-ish I believe with even longer kink, but thin tubed- that one I even liked.
Canyon IMO seems to be -from design point of view-"overengineered" . I'm sure many will like it, but not me.

I just bought the 9.0 with double Rotor front chainrings. I plan to use it for a road bike mainly. I was drawn to it for the styling. It looks badass. I like beautiful road bikes, but a muscular badass design like this has me signed up. It arrives tomorrow!

I like the look here.
I've seen it in real life. It's alright. The look is distinctive, but I certainly wouldn't say it's attractive, by any stretch of the imagination.

I cannot give an honest answer yet. I just came back from a business trip and brought back sickness as a souvenir. I did manage to get it out briefly a night before I left. The Schwalbe cross tires rolled surprisingly well on pavement. I may get it out today, depending on how I feel and weather. As you can see, I have swapped over to 28c road tires. I will be able to give a better answer of road feel with those.
