Canyon bikes
Discovered in a magazine few month the 'boutique' brand Canyon > http://www.canyon.com/_en/
They seems to be pretty good bikes, well made, and even the cheapest model has decent gears.
Does anyone own one? or tested one?
Is there any shops in and around Sydney selling this brand?
Would be nice to test one before buying.
LBS favourites
I'm keen to canvas some opinion on good local bike shops for service and repair. I always come away from mine with a niggling feeling that I'm paying above the odds for spares and service and maybe not getting best VFM.
Anyone got any recommendations on other places I could try? I'm fairly central to the CBD so can go north or south, although north towards Hornsby would be easier as it's on the way to work.

Gopro H3 Black edition $430Aus delivered
So given you are reading this I'm guessing that price has got your attention. Have seen it under $400 US plus delivery if you can get them to deliver here but haven't seen it that cheap locally. Forget their $781 "was" price but I think the $430 delivered Aus wide with Aus guarantee is pretty reasonable. Happy shopping anyone with spare dollars after Christmas.

Cranks bikes stores close

I thought Cranks looked quite strong; good brand, good locations, good stores. Looks like they're gone though!

Ergonomic bike setup
I'm looking for someone who can set up a MTB for best ergonomic fit as I'm starting to develop a bit of pain here and there. It is worse on my training bike than on the racing bike so I'm hoping I can rid myself of some of the discomfort by getting the bike properly setup.
If any of you have had a good experience please advise where to go to get it properly done.
Thanks

MTBA insurance
Can anyone explain in layman terms what cover is provided by a MTBA licence? In an email lately, they've changed things slightly.
Personally, I already have income protection, death & permanent disability insurance.

Bike Hire in Rotorua
Hey Guys,
Can anyone recommend somewhere in Rotorua to hire a decent MTB? Or maybe a guided tour?
I'll be in NZ with the family for a holiday & will only be able to manage a day riding, so I don't really want to haul my bike all over the place.
I like the idea of maybe doing a guided day tour too, since I'll be riding by myself - the family are not very keen & would rather do more touristy stuff.
I've seen http://www.mtbrotorua.co.nz/ & http://www.planetbike.co.nz/ but any advice would be grateful.
Cheers
