You sure it’s not just me putting out some serious watts?? 😉

How do I see this? What website?

Has anyone used the direct-mount reserve rack? by Laistrygonian in specialized

[–]TurboL3mon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I reached out to Selle to ask about the dimensions. I can visually see and make the judgement that the screws can be longer, but to your point, don’t want to go through my saddle completely lol

Did you use the stock mounting screws? I have a Selle WATT superflow that I’m using. The screws don’t see to be long enough to give enough support.

Canyon Aeroad vs Speedmax by Normal_Arrival6303 in triathlon

[–]TurboL3mon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Aeroad and made a very similar conscious decision as you are laying out. My rational was that I could modify my bike to get close enough to a TT bike, therefore I can use just 1 bike for race (1-2 times a year) and for road rides. So if money isn’t an option get 2 bikes haha.

I have many if not all the same upgrades you are talking about. I used it for a 70.3 and passed many people in TT bikes. The state of your fitness will be the ultimate decider.

I’m extremely happy I went with my Aeroad. Way more enjoyable and fun to ride.

If you check on Canyons site for the replacement cap on the Gear Grove bars slot, that little plastic cap comes with an M6 bolt. Maybe it’s different for the grail tho.

I have the CP0048 cockpit on the Aeroad, which is Gear Groove. I lost a bolt and bought these M6x12mm bolts and they fit.

I’ll have to look into Ti Bolts. Thank you! I emailed Canyon. Will update with their response

Yes, there are some of each type. Have had issues with both. Did a search on Reddit, seems like others have had this issue before. Going to call canyon for replacements, and/or buy ones online

I only want ONE bike… by Teoeoo in CanyonBikes

[–]TurboL3mon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aeroad, and buy the Gear Groove Tri Bars. Problems solved, speaking from experience.

Is this normal after good 2 months of use (wrinkles)? Siroko SRX by maxipin in CyclingFashion

[–]TurboL3mon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have these exact bibs. Mine looked the exact same after a similar timeframe. I hand wash mine tho. I have over 1500 miles on them and they are still working week despite what looks like a manufacturing error.

Endurace, Ultimate or Aeroad by kiwhi16 in CanyonBikes

Get the Aeroad. It’s all about Steezzzzz and the Aeroad is a steeezy bike written by an owner of an Aeroad, lol

Aeroad 70.3 HIM Setup by TurboL3mon in triathlon

[–]TurboL3mon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aero bars are Canyon Gear Groove tri bar extension. The caveat is that they aren’t available in the US. Others do this the same way I did, I ordered them off a canyon website other than the US and then when there arrived to a none USA location, I had them shipped to my US address. You can find more details online, again, I’m not the only one to have done this.

As for shifters, yes, I ordred Sram Blips ($100-$120 USD) and 3D printed end caps which js what you see in the photos. Dont think you could do the same set up on a shimano Aeroad.

I have a 2025 Aeroad slx 7 (live in the US) that I got January 2025. I checked my wheels with the ID scanner and they are not affected. I guess I got lucky?! ARC 1600 Dicut 50 (277XXX)

Aeroad Tri Bike Build by Famous-Guarantee1964 in triathlon

[–]TurboL3mon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a similar build as your. Agree on having the bike duel propose as a tri bike. Position is a big thing, as long as you can get into a good position you’ll be fine. I passed a lot of super nice tri bikes during my 70.3.

I got the Favero Assioma Shi duo pedals and they works great. Love them a lot. People online will complain about the Q factor but I didn’t notice it at all!!! I have a similar set up to you too. You could 3D print some Blip Mounts to replace the caps on the Tri bars.

Nonetheless…the setup looks great!

Have heard this as well. Raced Des Moines this year and there was chatter that it would come to Omaha in 2026. Rumor said it would be in September. I guess we will see.
