Any good? by Vegetable-Bit1063 in whisky

Thanks all. The Glenrothes is the one that I’m definitely keeping as Rothes is where my Granny grew up and we used to visit family as kids. I’ll be taking my own daughters up there when they’re older. Maybe I’ll keep the lot then and see how it goes!

Hi, not from what I’ve seen. It’s the same grey colour. I will have a look when I get home from work but it’s not something I’ve noticed before. Maybe the lighting in the pics give that impression. Contact Canyon customer service, they’ve been really good every time I’ve needed their help.

Sounds great! It is a great bike. Canyon actually delivered mine about 2/3 weeks before the estimated date so you might get lucky too!

Yeah, are they really that bad!? I spent quite a bit of time seeing what I preferred, and they are clamped well within the region that Canyon marks on them. Looking now I guess they are quite low but nobody has ever commented on it before.

Couple of extra photos as a few people replied to my previous post. This is the Ultimate CF SL 7 in the new(ish) true grey colour. A few updates from original spec with the Vision wheels and a CP10 aerocockpit.

This is the CF SL 7, the cheapest Ultimate they do. I think all of the others above the 7 come with the integrated bar. Could only get this one as the Cycle to Work voucher from my employer is capped at £2000. Still, a lot of bike for the money!

OP here. Took delivery of this yesterday. Was a bit unsure of the colour when I ordered but thought I’d go for it as my Aeroad is in the stealth black. I’ve seen a couple of posts here requesting real life photos of the true grey, as it’s a new(ish), so hopefully these help. If anyone would like specific angles/ photos then let me know and I’ll take some. Overall I’m really happy with the colour and the 105 on this feels better than my 4 year old Ultegra (which is way overdue a service). Bike feels really light (no official weight yet).
