Apparently Canyon is revealing the new Speedmax on November 17, and it will be the much anticipated Disk brake model. [The New Canyon Speedmax! | GTN Exclusive Canyon Launch]

Don’t get the hype around disc brakes especially on tt/tri bikes really but honestly I’m more interested to know about changes on the frame geometry. Would like to see the space between down tube and front wheel reduced, however if the slx version comes with no integrated hydration system/bento, the…

Why would a geometry change be needed? Isn’t the main reason to get a TT/Tri bike, that you are able to find the exact fit for you? I mean, at least on my TT, the geometry isn’t really relevant, as I have the possibility to lower and higher the saddle by a lot, move the saddle more forward and back…

I’m not talking about full geometry changes, just that the downtube could be a little be closer to the front wheel, the frame is fine otherwise. You’re right though, those little watt saves are just a marketing thing anyway, doubt it’s really significant for someone of my level, what matters is your…

Agreed - the hydration system looks really cool and a pretty smart solution with the magnetised top/staw to make refilling easy. The price increase is pretty steep though, it’s about £2k more than the previous SLX for the equivalent model.

Looking at the top end model, I‘d really look at the Dura Ace one. It is €2,000 less expensive and has the faster/ more stable wheels (DT Swiss Dicut 1100 dB). I have seen test where they clearly outperform the 858 and from personal experience, they are a lot more stable.

Oh man - been holding off this for a while… but it looks so odd

anon20047708: Looking at the budget CF8 bike, they bumped the prices from 3.119€ to 4.199€. That’s a 34% increase. Outrageous. They will keep selling the previous rim-brake version for the same price as before.

It certainly isn’t a looker.

The frame is giving me Cervelo P5 (2015) vibes:
