ive got freerider, freerider contact and spitfires, the freerider and spitfires are so confortable i would wear them as an everyday trainer. The freerider contact, well there’s no doubt they are grippy on flatsbut if you have to get off the bike for any reason be careful as they don’t offer much...

yeah it’s a 7, still in dubai until tuesday tho so no other rides to report yet

i’ll normally get a few pedal strikes on my ride but i can’t say it’s any worse than my normal bike, there’s 2 rear shock settings that lowers and raises the bb height, maybe it was on the lowest setting ?

only just realised there was one, thought the original one would get moved and as i saw it wasn’t i didn’t go looking in here !!

haven’t updated mine yet, think i read the latest update was for people running wireless gear shifters , does it let you customise the power available in different modes? if so i’ll probably leave it, seems ok to me so far

can’t believe you haven’t had it at least round the block yet, what you playing at ? ?

Rob, any chance of moving this thread to other manufacturers or general to discuss the bike and it’s merits/deficiencies? so we don’t have to scroll through hello and welcome threads? (not having a go, the more the merrier) ?

nice one, first positive canyon story, shipped a week early, delivered a day earlier.

can’t you use existing brake cables ? zee to saint? and just give them a quick bleed after swap over ?

it ain’t gonna take you 2 days to swap brakes and handlebars is it ?

good stuff, should have it by the middle of next week.

think dean winchester ordered his from stock and ended up getting his bike within 2 days or something, mind i think he is in germany.

if i could have made that date i’d have been all over it, unfortunately i’ve got commitments - next time something’s happening that way on i’ll try and put an appearance in. BTW when i went last week there seem to be a heck of a lot of felling planned to start soon, i hope it doesn’t put too...

i can see the ‘off piste’ that runs up the side of the fireroad eventually being incorporated into the main trail as they stated one of their aims was to do away with fireroads. I always found it a bit of a ball ache on the non emtb and used the fire road, maybe it’s better with epower. They did...

you just prize it off with a screwdriver/stanley blade?

yeah the stem and bars on my orange were 35mm so they will go straight on, i’m more concerned about being able to reuse the stick on cable way - wonder if you can buy a spare ?

clanseys me old mucker, when you swapped bars did you use the cable tidy that the remote wire runs through on the stock bars or just leave it hanging ? and if you did use it, any tips on getting it off without damaging it? Just asking as i’m probably going to put my renthal carbons from my...

looks like you’ll just miss this weekend but you get it early next week if no hitches. Nice one, who’s next? or was that it for spectral on owners on here ?

panic over mate, shipped by friday at the latest, in the uk sunday morning, delivered to your home by next tuesday/weds/thurs - smashing the trails on the weekend.

loving it mate, bundles of fun although i’m in dubai for a couple of weeks so you should have yours before i get chance to get out on mine again.
