This week arrived my Canyon CF SLX Di2.
Ultimate CF SLX Di2 2013
Ultegra 6700 Di2
Ultegra SH PD-670 carbon pedals
Mavic Ksyrium Elite black
Ritchey WCS EvoCurve carbon matte black handlebars

First photos, and more to follow once I am able to take it out for a ride!
Due to the rain I could not take it out, so I did the first adjustments with my rollers.

I took my SLX out for a ride yesterday and it felt really good. The VCLS seatpost in combination with my San Marco Zoncolan is really comfortable. The bike is stif while riding out of the saddle and during climbs.
The Di2 shifts very nice and smooth, butit costed my quite a while to figure out where the charging point was (in the junction box there is now an charging point as the battery is mounted in the frame).
Here a "crappy" picture, better pictures will follow as hopefully this weekend I am able to make a bigger ride with some more photos (without saddlebag) :P

I am 193cm tall with 93cm inside leg. I have ordered XL with following changes:
stem 110mm-->120mm
bars 42cm --> 44 cm
I am riding 180mm cranks, which are already waiting 4 months in my home for the new CF SLX. :shock:0 -
I still have to make a long ride to make the final "miniature" adjustments (seat height, seat angle and setback), but even for now copying the "settings" of my Bianchi track bike the SLX is very it's comfortable.0

Nah Just get a cover in whatever colour you like for it0 -

Not off of the top my head sorry, don't have a Garmin meself, just seen the covers in magazines and stuff, I know that wiggle are stocking the 510 cases, so it might fit After that eBay is always a safe bet Sorry for the late reply, I've been busy with exams
Nice pic there too, fair play to you for been able to take a pic of the bike with both hands, I'm doing well too get something out of my back pocket0 -
Nice to see another Canyon Ultimate CF SLX lover, nice build.
Also aggresive look (height seat vs steering)
Enjoy the rides on it!!!0 -

Nice I'm guessing you're into the photography too?
Oh by the way, always wondered about those headsets, can you literally stick your finger down into it?0 -
Get those legs shaved!0

Looks loads better without its bum bag. I've just realised why Americans call them Fanny packs0

Great Build0
