Looks to be about the right size for the average-height adult male. Are you from the land of giants or something?

I thought the same thing. It could however use some proper road pedals, loose a few spacers. I do like the looks of it however. What wheels are those? Spinergy?

I love my Crank Brothers 3's, so they're proper for me. Cant lose any spacers, thats the way I was fitted. Wheels are debadged 2011 Bontrager Aeolus 5.0's..

Those aren't proper road pedals, and I give it a solid meh. It's not ugly, but it's not the hottest thing in the world either.

shimano components always look ugly on carbon bikes.
The bike needs SRAM Force.

MOOTS: definitely HOT with a capital H O T!!! The Canyon? meh... I'll say not. The amount of rake on that fork makes it look really weird to me and the white, while simple and appeals to me doesn't spell HOT. Having said that, I would take it though if you don't want it.
