I see a few reasonably priced OTP offerings with Ultegra 680o around.
This for example:

And this:

But with most online shops lead time seems to be an issue. Who here knows the current Shimano politics? I am getting an inkling that online shops have priced up their OTPs in anticipation of a price drop on the Ultegra, but that Shimano are keeping them waiting.
If so, then ordering one (I'm keen on the Canyon) could become one of those experiences where the supplier takes your money and then just keeps postponing the delivery.
