Canyon launches its first-ever custom bike programme offering unique hand-painted frames
The new MyCanyon programme will allow customers to choos🐭e from a range of special paint jobs and cust꧟om spec a range of components

Canyon has launched its first-ever custom bike programme, which will be ca🐠lled 'MyCanyon.' The programme, which will launch in the US first, will allow customers to choose from various custom paint finishes as well as spec groupsets, wheels, and components using a new Canyon 🎃custom configurator on the brand's website.
Canyon has provided its athletes with custom-painted bikes fairly regularly over the years. A particularly memorable model was the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:custom-painted Speedmax Triathlon bike inspired by the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a fish (yes, really) for Ironman Kona in 2022. A more recent model was 168澳洲5最新开🤪奖结果:Mathieu van der Poel's cust𓃲om rainbow Aeroad CFR.
Now though, th🌊e brand says it is realising founder Roman Arnold's original dream of providing custom bikes for his customers🌠.
The MyCanyon programme will only feature one model to start with, which will be the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aeroad CFR road model, the brand's flagship road race machine and a bike many consider to be one of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:best road bikes.
Canyon claims the new programme will offer a 'streamlined selection of luxury options' rather than overwhelm customers with countless, unlimited spec choices. Customers won't be able to create their own frame designs, instead choosing from 13 paint spec options. The main custom spec options will be broken down as follows:
1. Aesthetics - Choose꧂ a custom paint ꦅfinish and even add a name sticker.
2. Fit - Choose your saddle and stem length.
The latest race content, interviews, features, 🌄reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!
3. Function - Choose the groupset, wheels and tyres.
MyCanyon Aeroad CFR bikes can be specced with either 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Shimano Dura-Ace or 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:SRAM Red AXS groupsets, although there will be no 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Campagnolo Super Record WR option at present. There will be saddle options from Selle Italia and Zipp or DT Swiss wheelsets with a choice of Continenta🐻l or Pirelli tyres. Customer🔜s will also be able to custom spec stem lengths on the Canyon Pace handlebar, something that isn't currently offered on standard bike orders. Although there is plenty of choice, the customer can't specify their crank arm length or choose the Canyon Pace aero drop handlebar as an option.
Canyon says each MyCanyon order will take six to twelve weeks, a new website custom configurator and app will allow customers to tailor their orders and track the progress of their build. The MyCanyon programme will launch str👍aight away in the US, in April for Asia-Pacific customers and at the end of summer this year for Europe and the rest of🌌 the world locations.
The most expensive Aeroad CFR model in the US is $9,999. Even with the m🌺ost premium paint surcharge, which costs $1,500, the bike still costs less than some competitors. W𒉰hile undoubtedly expensive, Canyon seems to have managed to keep costs down compared to some of its rivals, though we don't know if there will be any additional custom surcharges just yet.
Paintwork options
Fabrio
When it comes to choosing the paint, Canyon h�💙�as created three paintwork collections to choose from, these will be named: Fabrio, Mano and Opus and will all be hand-painted.
The Fabrio collection designs 'blend special pigments and iridescent decals ꦚthat change appearance as the bike reflectsౠ light' according to Canyon. Three options will be available in the collection; Gold Dust, Milky Way and Dark Matter.
Fabrio pai🍨nt options will carry a $500 upgrade cos💫t.



Mano
Mano frames are 𝄹all hand painted which Canyon says will make each one slightly different, with no one frame the same. The first se🔯ries in the collection will be called 'Astro' and features paint inspired by the cosmos.
Four finishes will be on offer (pictured below): Henize, Leo, Carina, and Himiko. Astrology aficionados may well know already, but these names refer to the ⭕four largest known Nebulae in th🅘e night sky.
M𓄧ano collection frames will carry a $700 surcharge.




Opus
The Opus collection is comprised of two designs that have been created by the well-known artists Felipe Pan🧔tone and Elena Salmistraro. Canyon says each of these designs demands 'a deeply complex paint job that is extremely hard to pull off.'
Mysterious Argentine / Spanish graffiti artist Pantone focuses on the 'organised chaos' 💟of speed ꦑand the paint features monochrome flashes.
Italian artist Salmistraro has used the magic༒ of colour to create a 'joyful' Aeroad design that can💙 be seen below.
Both Opus designs will be raced by top WorldTour riders in the men's and women's pelotons in t✨he coming months.&🐭nbsp;
Canyon also clai💖ms they will collaborate with other artists on Opus frame designs in the future.
Opus collection bikes will carry𓂃 a $1500 surcharge.&nbꩵsp;
