    if it was me i would think the orbea ordu is the faster bike in the sub 5 cat and you get it with dealer support if your are not a mechanic.

    the top cannyon on the other hand is not bad at all. the old cannyon was average in the aero department this one is up there with the fastest and potoentially even a bit faster if the numbers are not over fabricated...


    the irony the old canyons would have fitted me but were slower than my 2010 cervelo this bike is faster but now to short for me.

    Waited eagerly for the Canyon release but am not overly impressed with them. Would probably have to pop at the Ultegra di2 in mint green for 5800 which is a bit too much for me (considering how unfit I’ve got it would also be bit embarrassing)

    Going to see if I can find a bike shop stocking Orca Ordu.

    Btw, slightly off topic but anyone recommend a good bike fitter?

    Plenty of time for when the races start again in 2022.

    The cervelo p series disc look nice and are available at the 3 different price points. I think you’d get a P3 around the €5k price point? Depreciation might not be quite as disastrous either 🀪
    Plenty of local bike shops do cervelo also.

    I have read about huge quality issues in Cervelo production in recent times. I have a P2c and thought would replace with a Cervelo but not after what I have read.

    This the Hambini review on current Cervelos? https://www.hambini.com/hambini-roasts-cervelo/

    At this point though i dont know who he says are any use, seems to have issue with all bike brands

    i guess you can put this guy somewhere in the trump league when it comes to fake news.
    i have an aerocoach wheel and iam very sure iam not losing 15en watts ... in my own testing it relegated a zipp 808 wheel into a wheel that is for sale . which would also be confirmed by a few other tests i have seen, especially with the tyre i use.

    i do not think going to threadless bottom brackets was a good idea by the industry ,at all , but id like to see more evidence than this troll that cervelo has huge quality issues with its tt bike .
