Hi all,
Long time reader 1st time posting a bike. I am moving from a Felt F series FRD, to a Canyon Aeroad. The felt came in at 6.80kg, so I am aiming for that with the Aeroad.

Parts so far
Frame, Fork, hanger, Headset, seatpost clamp ,Seatpost: All stock that came with the Canyon Aeroad XL frame.
Stem, Fouriers 140mm neg 17 Degrees SM-RA009 168gr
Bar, Pro Vibe Aero 240gr
Bartape, Cinelli half mike giant and half plain black.
bottle cages and hardware Carbonworks
Outer Cables, Jagwire road elite link brake kit
Inner Cables, Jagwire road elite link brake kit
Brakes, Front derailleur, Shifters, Dura ace di2 9150
Wheels: Prime 50

So far we are just under the 5kg mark so i think we are looking close to the 6.8 mark when done.

Being an oversized steerer I didn't have many options in stems. I need a 140mm neg 17 degrees. The Fouriers stem was all that i could find. If any one knows of a better option let me know.

Looks great so far.

What are your measurements?

Got a monster stem on there and looks like a nice amount of drop.

Very nice. Do all Canyons come with 1-1/4” steerers?

I am 184cm, but I have short legs compared to my torso and long arms. I struggle to stretch out on a lot of bikes because of this. By memory, from tip of saddle to centre of bars is around 635mm. Will drop the post a bit once I get a saddle, don’t want to risk scratching it when I drop it down. Will wait till I get all the parts.

I know the Ultimate and Endurance use the 1-1/4 steerer as well. So basically all the road bikes. Don't know about the other models.

Strange question but can you post a head-on shot with the Pro Vibe? :)
