Any idea how/when Canyon's seasons are defined?

I had been eyeing up the canyon ultimate al 9.0 as my new bike this year, I had a look online recently and it says that it is sold out for this season. Does anyone know if that means they will get more stock in the summer, or that they won't be selling that bike again until they release a updated version? Thanks

    Thanks. I guess that means I should start looking elsewhere then if they wont get any more in. I understand they wouldn't want to overstock, but it seems a bit strange to miss out on 6 months worth of selling opportunity if that's what's happening.
  • What about Rose bikes? Same sort of price, spec and build quality. I would have ordered from here if I had problems with Canyon.

    The season is the one used by the likes of European car manufacturers. 2015 models start after the August shut down.
  • Order one before December and you may get it by May.

    Followed by: we've sold out.
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles

    Yea, those were second on my list. I'm just surprised that Canyon are willing to miss out on 5 months worth of sales.
