Stunning build. Love it.

Do wish I bought my Canyon in black. I have a CF Pro in white and a AL in powder black. The white has to be cleaned after every ride!

@stolichnaya- aftermarket. token ultralight clamp.

@genesis- after the 3yo k-force lights's sleeved loosened, i was limited in terms of budget as it was sudden. chose it over slk-light and fulcrum torq r. then over time, i began to really like its looks, solid feel and ease of installation. and since this wasnt a ultralight build, carried it over.

Sick build as always. Like the look of the Rotor crank on there.

Lovely build!

Can I ask where did you get your orange cable outers on your previous build, what brand are they?

thanks

Great looking bike.
And Rotor cranks are very good.
Personally I'd have gone for Campagnolo chain, cassette and brakes though :)

I would recommend black hoods and white tape. The hoods are also a bit high but that is all personal preference.

Good stuff.

Where did you take the (great) photos? Looks like some sort of underpass.
