Hi all. Looking at a Canyon Ultimate CF SL or SLX for my girlfriend. She's 5' 7" with an inseam of maybe 30.3". I'm not 100% convinced on Canyon sizing advice either via their online tool or their chat advice. They are saying XS size but I would have thought she is a Medium or Small at most. I know everyone's different and sizing has many other factors as well as just height, however just interested in any other ladies opinions. My girlfriend normally rides a 54cm Specialized Allez Comp 2015 with a 90mm stem and 40cm width bar. Cranks are 172.5mm. How have you other ladies got on with Canyon's sizing? Thanks in advance.

  • Sorry- this isn't directly helpful but I too wonder about Canyon's sizing...they sized me up as a small, when I asked the guy who did my previous bike fit he suggested a medium would be a better fit for me. When I directly overlaid the 2 framesets the medium did seem like a closer match to me.
  • The small will probably be a closer match to the Spesh
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles
