Sep 9, 2019Canyon Strive CF8.0 Race (Large)
$1400 GBPFor sale I have my Canyon Strive CF8.0 Race in a size large.
I am selling due to getting a new bike as I am keen to try out a 29er. The bike has been looked after very well and had invisiframe put on it before it was ever taken outside so the frame is still in immaculate condition. As you can see due to the invisiframe being a few years old it is starting to look a bit tatty but it is still doing its purpose of protecting the frame!
Over the years parts have been replaced or upgraded, the main upgrades have been swapping the terrible RockShox monarch shock for a DVO Topaz that really transformed the bike and swapping the 150mm dropper for a 175 reverb to let me get the seat lower.
The drivetrain has been looked after and parts changed as soon as they have worn. I have got a fairly new cassette and chainring on and a brand new chain to keep it running smooth.
The wheels and headset have one month old bearings in so they are running smooth and the rear has been rebuilt recently due to needing to straighten the back wheel and replace broken nipples. Both wheels are set up tubeless and have just been refilled with fresh stans no tubes sealant
I have an unused spare shapeshifter with the bike which I have never needed to fit due to the original one still working fine.
