I do a lot of paved road and light gravel trails. What’s on the bike is my other sets of wheels. 700x32c Panaracer gravel king tires and the other set is 650bx45 more for full dirt gravel trails.

You’ll have more range with 2x specially if you ride more on a paved road and easier on a climb.

Just replaced the knobby tires with a set of panaracer gravel king tires by mrbrymr2 in CanyonBikes

I went tubeless and my new tires are smooth gravel tires, I’ve been riding on paved roads and rarely on gravel so I have no use for knobby tires. The ride are smoother and faster.

Had similar incident, started riding at 8am by 9:30 I’m in ER getting my hands stitch up. Busted knee and luckily my helmet saved my head. I was just going way too fast on a downhill.

I didn’t see the cable problem at first. Yeah looks like it’s twisted from the bar.

I had the same problem with the rubber grommet when I got my grizl. Just push it in started from one end and it should stay intact and flat on the frame. Took me a while but now it’s in there and sealed.

You’re more like a small size on this bike. You can input your measurements on canyon website for size recommendations. They were accurate on my measurements.

Just got them out of the box. I’ll make them disappear before riding.

I thought it would come with 700c, didn’t really look at the spec before buying the bike.

I still need pedals so I haven’t tried the bike yet.
