Aero vs allrounder race bike

Canyon is no longer honoring the crash replacement program (at least in the US). Now they’d only offer you a 20% discount on a new bike (outlet and bikes on sale not included). This is not very helpful when you have everything else in good condition (expensive groupsets, proprietary parts, etc).

They also don’t sale individual frames or forks. Proprietary parts are out of stock most of the time. So it’s a headache if you need to replace any of those parts.

In my case it ended up being more expensive than anything I saved in the original purchase. It doesn’t help that Canyon’s SLX frames seem to be more prone to breaking than the cheaper models.

You can reach out and confirm directly with them about their crash replacement policy. Ask them if they have CRP frames available for purchase. You can also do q quick search and you’ll find plenty of examples.
