Are Canyons really worth the hassle ?

Got an Ultimate AL 7.0 earlier this year and love it, would buy from them again no problem.

No offence (and its up the person what they do with their money), but why would "a bit of a amateur" look at those kind of bikes ?

Passed a bloke last weekend struggling Waddington Fell on a Dura Ace kitted very nice looking Felt(I think). Belly was out and he wasn't a spring chicken - but why struggle in a possibly £4000+ bike when you can struggle the same on a sub £1000 thats probably the same weight and feels exactly the same at amateur levels of riding.

Totally disagree. Had a roubaix with 105 kit. Was nice to ride, but a bit heavy.

Got a roubaix pro, better frame, better wheels, etc.
Even better to ride.

Now got an s works roubaix , simply fantastic. I am nearly 50 and 16 stone.

I won't win any races, but the bike is a joy to ride in a way that a lesser bike simply will never be.

Got to say, the 2014 bikes look really nice, especially the 11 speed Ultegra carbon road bikes. Interesting that they've got a Campag Athena option as well.
