A
week
ago
I
received
a
package
with
a
new
Canyon
bike.
After
starting
the
assembly,
I
saw
that
there
was
a
significant
chip
on
the
carbon
frame,
as
a
result
of
which
the
paint,
protective
coating
and
carbon
were
destroyed.
I
was
very
upset,
wrote
to
all
Canyon
social
networks,
then
started
a
correspondence
with
the
employees
of
the
Polish
branch
via
chat.
We
had
to
wait
20
minutes
to
start
the
correspondence.
A
certain
Victoria
closed
the
chat
three
times
under
the
far-fetched
pretexts
of
some
"system
failures"
and
I
had
to
queue
up
again.
In
the
end,
I
was
given
a
contact
form
on
the
site,
I
filled
it
out.
I
wrote
that
I
consider
the
chip
on
the
frame
to
be
a
significant
drawback
for
a
new
bike
and
asked
to
replace
it
with
another
one
(without
defects).
I
was
in
a
hurry
because
I
planned
to
go
on
vacation
on
a
new
bike.
They
didn't
answer
me
for
three
days.
Then
a
letter
came
in
which
it
was
written
that
I
would
not
be
able
to
receive
a
new
bike
until
after
a
month,
and
I
should
send
the
defective
bike
to
Canyon
(all
this
time
my
money
will
be
in
their
account).
Nobody
instructed
me
how
do
I
send
the
bike
back
to
Canyon.
I
was
offered
to
wait
some
more
and
then
they
will
send
me
instructions
on
how
I
should
send
the
bike
through
UPS.
I'm
waiting
two
more
days.
I
then
received
an
e-mail
from
the
customer
service
expressing
regret
about
what
had
happened
and
marking
the
frame
chip
as
“cosmetic”,
then
I
was
offered
a
300
PLN
voucher
to
buy
goods
on
the
Canyon
website
(I
remind
that
the
new
bike
cost
me
7000
PLN,
and
the
carbon
frame
-
the
most
expensive
part
of
it).
After
some
thought,
I
decided
that
since
the
employees
say
that
the
chip
is
not
terrible,
and
the
new
bike
is
not
available
until
a
month
later,
I
decided
to
finish
the
assembly
and
ride
the
bike.
I
removed
the
packaging
from
the
front
fork
and
tried
to
put
on
the
front
wheel.
But
this
turned
out
to
be
impossible:
the
brake
pads
were
clamped
and
the
wheel
disc
simply
did
not
fit
through
the
gap
between
them.
The
instructions
said
that
there
should
have
been
an
orange
plastic
plug
between
the
pads,
but
there
was
none.
I
tried
to
somehow
push
the
pads
apart
on
my
own,
but
nothing
worked
for
me.
As
a
result,
I
took
the
bike
without
the
front
wheel,
then
the
front
wheel
and
went
to
the
nearest
service.
I
took
a
taxi
and
spent
200
PLN
in
the
service
(not
Canyon)
to
make
a
new
bike
rideable.
A
few
more
shortcomings
were
revealed
in
the
service:
the
front
wheel
brake
disc
was
warped
and
had
to
be
straightened,
the
SRAM
derailleur
was
not
set
up
properly
(the
required
derailleur
adjustment
tool
was
missing
from
the
kit),
the
bottom
plastic
gasket
under
the
steering
wheel
was
attached
crookedly
(we
could
not
fix
this,
because
the
servicemen
did
not
find
the
smallest
screwdriver
1
Nm).
All
my
attempts
to
contact
the
Canyon
service
were
in
vain.
I
am
very
disappointed
with
this
attitude
towards
customers.
Just
shock.
When
I
have
problems
with
my
phone,
as
a
Google
One
subscriber
for
139
PLN
per
year,
I
can
contact
via
chat
and
get
prompt
help
on
any
issue
in
a
few
minutes.
Personal
from
Canyon
sell
bikes
for
thousands
of
euros
and
leave
you
alone
with
your
problems
and
your
new
bike.
They
turned
off
the
chat
for
me
too.
In
social
networks,
80
correspondence
is
conducted
by
a
bot.
I
am
shocked
by
such
an
attitude
to
work
and
to
people.
P.S.
Two
days
after
I
wrote
this
review,
my
new
Canyon
Roadlite
8
CF
crank
Samox
TAF
37
fell
off
while
riding.
Crank
Samox
TAF
37
is
impossible
to
find
in
Poland,
so
I
buy
crank
Force
D1.
Canyon
agreed
to
compensate
me
700
PLN,
although
crankset
and
pressfit
DUB
Token
cost
me
almost
1200
PLN.
The
representatives
of
the
Polish
office
of
Canyon
refused
to
pay
for
the
delivery
of
a
faulty
bike
to
the
AirBike
service,
which
is
located
19
kilometers
from
me.
Remember:
If
a
new
bike
is
delivered
to
you
with
a
problem,
Canyon
will
not
help
you.
You
will
correspond
with
them
for
weeks
and
demand
the
return
of
your
money,
spending
your
time
and
nerves
on
this.
