SwissVan Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 This is a silly as in silly funny thread...Lots of German MTBs out there. Another funny silly but true fact about German made canyon bikes.... Did u know you cannot buy a new German canyon bike from a canyon bike shop in Switzerland? You have to import it from Germany and they are not officially allowed to sell them in Switzerland Something to do with that their is a Swiss canyon bike manufacturer or something like that .....

Note the bike branded as Ultimate IMG_0767.PNG That's correctThe Swissies have there own Canyon brand.... http://canyon.ch/ Nothing to do with the Canyon's that originate from Germany...This is the reason why you cannot buy a new German Canyon in Switz the swiss Canyon brand is pretty extensive as well but not as well known as the German Canyon. https://www.purecycling.ch/ LOOK695 1

t3ddy Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Very nice What do you think of the DT Swiss wheels?Early impressions are good, they seem very solidly built. Hard to give you much useful feedback though, they are very different to my previous 29'er wheels - wider, smaller, stiffer, quieter & lighter!
