But if you just need a city bike grab an old 80s road bike put some nice tires on it call it a day 300 bucks .
You couldnt pay me to ride a crayon . their bikes look like bootleg tt frames with boring shimano groupsets .
Wow...Canyon makes a quality bike. I personally don't prefer them, last year when I was looking to buy I got the runaround by Canyon USA for several months, very disorganized. When you spec them out, as I did this past weekend for a more aggressive road bike the Canyon was $200 less than a similarly equipped SuperSix EVO. I'd rather have the EVO and could make up that $200 and then some at my LBS.
But just because I prefer something else or had a bad experience doesn't make their bikes bad. Their bikes best I can tell are top notch pieces of equipment similar to Trek, Specialized, Cannondale, Scott etc.
