For shot - centre valves top/bottom, small ring at rear, flatten peddles and shift some leaves. Background a bit distracting/fussy.

Pulled the Cosmic stickers off the wheels? I'm liking that.

They were super easy to remove. Came right off with no residue left behind.

Yes, I definitely could have done more, but this was a quick shot before a ride.

Super nice Ultimate! A beauty!!!

The patterns on the fence overlayed with the striations on the wheels, monochromatic Canyon logo and odd white rotors are all very disconcerting.

The way the pattern on the fence interacts with the shape of the bottle cages is particularly disorienting. I feel dizzy.

I'm unconvinced that there isn't a zebra in the photo somewhere too.

The whole thing needs to be pressure washed and sprayed with Olympic.

Dude, it’s a bike forum not a fence forum.

Not white - it just looks like light reflecting off of Ultegra rotors with the big cooling fins.

You are correct. They are not white, but a light silver. Dura-Ace ones are black. I don't really like how they look either, however. I'll probably change them out for something else at some point. Those fins are a sail for crosswinds.

More than a bit; aside from the wheels, perhaps, it's the only source of visual interest.

Great bike, but the newer canyons just look odd to me. I think I have narrowed it down to being the proprietary stem they use and headtube. Dont know if you can swap it out for a standard stem or not. The shape of it just looks so blocky to me.

I have a feeling this one's gonna be a little polarizing :D

Spot on! Not a fan of the gold (KMC?) chain or red bolts but it's staged well and it's a good looking setup

Fiery 02-27-18 03:15 AM

That handlebar angle though.

I don't know about polarizing. Seems pretty conventional to me.

its the result of the levers being mounted too low.

Fiery 02-27-18 08:52 AM

Or maybe the levers are mounted too low because the bar is at a bad angle, eh?

Yes, that is the only fault I find as well. Otherwise, hot!

Gold chains not for me - neither is the bar angle.

Otherwise HOT

I've seen bikes that look good with a gold chain, but this isn't one of them.

What Noodle said.

My favorite Cervelo colorway. HOT enough for me that I could live with gold chain!
