Out of interest Matt, and for context, what is the price difference between the 2?
The Aerobike that he just build had a total investment of around Ā£1100
The Canyon was an ex demo I bought direct from Canyon a couple of years ago, cost around Ā£3700 and wheel upgrade was net Ā£800 (sold original wheels)
oh wow, so a really decent price differential then! Thatās really good going.
He got really lucky with the price on some of the parts. Amazingly most of the things he got had original invoices

Thatās a great looking bike there Matt
Done well with di2 etc
yeah right. a nip over a grand for something decent with di2 is crazy! Guess it shows what you can do if a) you know what yourāre looking for and b) you have the patience to wait for the right deals

Yeah for sure. I donāt have the patience.
Iām such a man child that when I want something, I have to have it now!
Must have also got serious gains from your shoes in that first photo 
Well spotted
That rear mech is working hard; the chain is probably a tad short?
and the size of that downtubeā¦ are you SURE its not an ebike?
That was my first thought when I saw it 
Now if I could build an 8kg ebike that could do 40kph for less then Ā£1100, I donāt think I would have to worry about money ever again

Wasnāt sure where else to put this. Browsing eBay (as you do) and saw this. My back hurts just looking at it.
