Hi, new member here and I already need your help.^_^

So I am buying a flat bar roadbike, its down to 2



-BMC roadmachine 02
https://www.elementcycles.net/product/2018-bmc-roadmachine02-fb-105/
- canyon roadlite CF 8
https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/outlet...rahmengroesse=XS&dwvar_1975_pv_rahmenfarbe=BK

the Canyon has better equipment (Ultegra vs 105) better wheels,...
The price is about the same

I really like the BMC frame but everything else is better on Canyon, so you can understand my dilema.

Has anyone tried any of this 2 ?
Which would you recommend ?

Thanks
 
For our information, why flat bar?
Most flatbar riders need some everyday utility features ( as well as performance).

You need to ride them, although unless in Germany that’s not possible with the Canyon

So the BMC if you can test

Also, mixed views about dealing remotely with Canyon customer service recently from one forum member @Solecyclist

Go for the one you like the look of if your dealer can’t get the BMC? Or buy a bike that you can try out :okay:
