I've ridden SuperSix' for the last few years, they fit me well.
I have a Giant Defy 1 Disc, the comfort is nice - It just lacks in the pace department a little too much for me (too upright).
I do like Discs on a road bike and I don't race, so that's not a problem.
I have a choice to make between these similar geo'd bikes:
CAAD12 Dura Ace Disc 2016 - £1,900
Canyon Ultimate CF SL Disc (Ultegra) - £2400
Canyon Ultimate CF SL Aero (Ultegra with bling Reynolds Strike wheels) - £2600.
What do I go for?

The Canyons I'm mentioning show "In Stock", so presumably - there is no wait time on them other than packaging and delivery times,
or do you mean, there are new models due to hit the shelves shortly?Norco Sight C7.2

Up to personal choice, I ordered a similar Ultimate to one you mention. Stated in stock on website and arrived 7 days after ordering and I am totally in love with it.
Other disc brake Road Brake options I looked at were the Giant TCR Advanced Disc, but preferred the look of the Canyon
This range was released last December, so imagine will refresh again end of the season/turn of year.
PS: On sizing I'm 175cm and a S, fits perfectly, the PPS system is very good0 -

If you have short legs but you're tall you might possibly want a large as you'll have a longer torso and reach0
