Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

It's possible that the bar has to be bolted together, but I'd be surprised given the extra weight which would be involved. This suggests that the brake lever clamps are pre-installed so that disassembly isn't necessary - 'Mounting levers to the bars is achieved via the preinstalled clamps.'

you can only mount your garmin OR a handlebar bag

Gotta say...the more I look at the Canyon...the more I like it! :)

But how the fuck do you work with a company to make bags specifically for your bike, and end up with that bar bag/roll...still strapped around the stem like an utter bodge job?
For me...one of the main benefits of a bar like that would have been to allow a small roll bag to be strapped to the relatively redundant lower bar, keeping weight lower, and leaving the whole upper bar clean and clutter free for your hands and gadgets. Missed a trick there IMO.

Yep, my 1st thought was regarding luggage.

Perhaps there will be some decalieur-type fittings for that garmin mount point?

A mounting point for a light (seems as the fork has none)? I have no idea. Perhaps on the flexy aero section of the top bar with a (very) custom bracket?

It makes the Slate look sensible.

Why is the cabling so bad on it also?!

In the case you have an handlebar bag, wouldn’t you put the Garmin on the top pocket of that same bag?

Another bodge.
When you're designing a bike from scratch, for a specific purpose, there's no excuse for not integrating the very things the users of said bike will be using.

And given how high their own bag sits, you could probably operate the garmin with your chin.

Ha ha

Stupidest thing about those bars is that if you don't get on with them you'll have to buy a set of integrated road bars from Canyon which will screw up your geometry and cost £363 (actually).

Also, it's not like Canyon have ever made anything that cracked is it @HoKe

I wouldn't fancy riding on those over rough stuff.

actual lol

I know you're mostly pulling @HoKe 's leg, but that was an aluminium frame being used outside its design parameters and a failed attempt to steal a carbon frame. Plenty of other people have used their carbon frames with no issues

Riding a track bike isn't exactly outside it's design parameters

He was commuting on it regularly, no?

Slaining it up oxford street on 88mm Chinese wheels is probably not the use it was designed for though

Yep, it has the bossed on the bar.
I'd never buy this. The bars put me off and the tyre width isn't enough.

He could have been doing laps of Swains on it but it's a high end track bike, it should be able to take 2000 watt sprints every day and keep going, and there's no way Ho is doing 2000 watts.

I was talking more about London road surfaces, in the same was as you wouldn't expect a high end race tire to necessarily last long commuting because that wasn't what it was designed to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

a high end race tyre would just wear out quickly. His frame terminally failed in an identical way a few times in a row, it's a design flaw.

What are you taking about?!

Nothing bodged at all about that mate, clearly a well mounted aerodynamically efficient mounting system that also definitely won't hit you in the hands or face in the slightest.

Aerodynamically efficient and gravel riding.
Wait.
What?

Bro, do you even exploro?

Looks like the real stem length (steerer to tops of the bars) is really short.

Barbag Airbag to TÜV standards?
