So any one waiting on an order, we wont hear anything until after their stock take which isnt over until the 30th.
They could be sending them before the 27th but for some reason I highly doubt that... Some guy in a Canyon Facebook group mentioned he was asked to pay for his unfilled Aeroad order so that it could be deliverd in October, seems to match this story. Im not sure if he had size S or M, or one of the sizes that will be sent later
Stock checks are standard in all
Companies so I don't think it's anything bad, I just think it will delay the process

Canyon do this every year, it's also why october is a good time to get outlet bikes from them as they've found a load to sell

Little update for those waiting, I got the mail to send the bike back for the handlebar & seatpost replacement. Size medium frame in France.
When did you first receive your bike? From what I've read it seems like they wanted to do it in order of first received to last

Bad news for Canyon lover who is waiting for new Aeroad or waiting to place order.
Dongguan, Guangdong is limiting power supply for high-energy consuming factories, which include carbon composite factory, due to high-temperature weather, to ensure civil power useage. This might last for a week or more and only 1 day in a week will the power be resumed.

Only FYI I brought my SLX 8 Aeroad (XS) on monday this week for bar change and got a message from Canyon BE today that it was ready for pick up or free delivery. I ordered mine on Jan 12th and it was delivered by Jan 25th. When I went to pick it up I noticed they replaced the saddle pen and the bars. I'll test it tomorrow....

Nice thanks. That seat post part looks much better than I thought it would. What's it like under the gasket?
I picked up my CFR yesteday from the Service Center (Eindhoven NL). Although there was only minor wear to the seatpost they replaced it with a new one. The sleeve looks ok-ish. Don't want to disassemble it yet to inspect the internals. There are new instructions on how to place the seatpost back into the frame: clean the seatpost and don't apply any assembly paste.
The new handlebars feels a bit thin compared to the old one. I preferred the "squared rouding" of the original one. Hopefully I will get used to it.

Looking this morning on a bigger screen there seems a lot of room around the seat post within that gasket. was it not meant to be tight to stop water/ dirt ingress?
