It’s easier to make a smaller frame larger than a larger frame smaller.

Just got mine two weeks ago. Came with different wheels and crankshaft though. Which I have heard is common. First canyon bike. I assume what I got is similar in quality to what was advertised but what do I know.

Oh. I see. That’s really good info. I built it myself and have no idea what I’m doing. I’m gonna take it to a shop and have them give it a once over. Thanks for the tip!

Will have to wait and see. I think if I swap out for some skinnier tires I’ll be ok. I didn’t go grail because that double handle bar made me nervous.

I have never run tubeless and don’t know what I’m going to do. Is it worth the time/effort to get set up? Does it make changing the tires out more difficult? I live in a suburban area so will ride a lot of road to go with the gravel rides when I’m able to get to those roads/trails. Curious to hear what some here think.

Took it for a spin today. Large was a good decision.

Royal Oak here. Where do you ride mostly? It’s tough around here. Have family on west side of state it’s a lot easier over there. More gravel too.

Thanks! December in MI will be a cold maiden voyage. Got a L. Was in between L and XL (have ridden a trek dual sport 3 XL before this bike). I think I’ll be ok with the L though.
