Obed is just a rebrand Carbonda btw
i have 2019 Niner, got it for the simple looks, straight lines, no gimmicks. The long chainstay creates a stable ride at speed, allows me to ride trough pretty narly roads with only 32mm slick. The downside is you have…
the red dub crank is about 50g lighter than easton also cheaper too if you can still find the quarq d1 version
probably want to pick a better brand name
tried the future-shock, not impressed, my redshift stem does pretty much everything and it is much lighter and maintenance free
such a nice build why selling after only 7 rides?
depends on the pink, some pink looks cool, anything but hot pink, that's just an eye sore

looks pretty good, very similar geo as 696 but with dropped seatstays, also like the di2 port on the downtube, no more drilling holes on the handlebar
you can get similar weight saving by switching the top plate to the ones from the uno stem and bolts to ti. I got my 100mm down to 245g, only 5g more than the pro version
get a better clamp with a lip, you want the clamp on top of the seattube to get the maximum clamping force
the cheaper sl actually looks better, too much curves at the seattube junction on the slr
steel is the deal if you do with full custom with tube diameter proportional to your weight, otherwise the frame will be way overbuild for you and rides like shit, unless you weight like 250-300lbs ofc
Canyon's frame quality have went down hill after their supplier relocated their factory from Taiwan to China
i would worry more about toe overlap with undersizing frame, stack can always be increased with spacer towers
the stack on that frame is lower than some racing road bikes
I am surprised you can even put a 45mm in, the clearance seems to be pretty good, too bad it is kinda porky for 2020, you have the sl or slr?
