Now if you are mechanically inclined and can do most everything yourself then that cuts that aspect down quite a bit but if you are not, then expect to pay for anything and everything when you bring your bike to LBS.

That's the only problem I see with getting a Canyon , i.e. follow-up maintenance and trouble shooting & can understand why the local LBS would not entirely welcome a Canyon - and around here in New England the local mobile shops have crazy expensive rates .
