Has anyone successfully exchanged an integrted bar-stem unit or are buyers relegated to purchasing a separate bar stem unit if they need a different size? Looking at an Endurace but would need diff. bar-stem (than the unit offered on my size).
I exchanged my cockpit with no dramas.
Just need to inform Canyon within a week of delivery and they should swap it our for you

Regards,
Cris

Thank you
The Prime are my first carbon wheels. I like them, better than my previous alloy one (zonda), except for braking (i don’t know if it’s due to the rim or the pads but braking is low)

Try the red Campagnolo pads. Those particular rims may not be any good for braking, but you'll at least be getting the best out of them with the Campy pads.

I just bought this frame to build up into a fall/winter bike. Can anyone tell me what the seatpost diameter?

Thanks.

Wheels probably not : mine weight 1485g. Not bad for 38 mm clincher
Pedals surely : i have R550, 60g heavier than ultegra or dura ace or look
The Aerocockpit is also a little bit heavier than traditionnal stem and bar but it looks so great !!!

Does anyone know where i could find the plastic spacers, not the aero spacers? Any Canyon bike owner that has some laying around that may be available for purchase?

I ordered those from Canyon. Can’t remember the price though - must’ve been inline with normal ones.
