Hi Guys :)

I'm new to Weightweenies and would like to share my project for the next few weeks with you.

It will be a Canyon Aeroad build with the Team Katusha Replica frame.
I ordered it this week and hope it will be sent to me soon.

Please post the photos when you get the frame, I expect the build to look similar to this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2jVKI ... sp=sharing

I know it's the team frame but does it say "Canyon" 17+ times on it?

That's the whole point, how else do you know what it is?

Nice...but I have a question, are you keeping all those logos on the frame or is there a plan to reduce them? (if there isn't, make one!! :lol: )

I'll wait until i've finished the build. They don't disturb me at the moment, maybe I'll reduce them later.

Quick update:
Recieved yesterday a call from the Sram importer, that the eTap isn't available at the moment. He said it will be delivered at the end of this year.
Unfortunately I can't continue the build until the groupset arrives, because there is nothing I can do except installing the saddle, but thats a small thing to do.
So lets wait...

Very nice. I just ordered the exact same frame today. I also intend to use eTap.

What are you thinking about the brakes? I note it comes with Dura-ace brakes. I wonder how well this will work
