If you could have any bike.....?
Discussion
I've been thinking for a while now that I want a new road bike to upgrade from my current one and it got me looking online at various manufacturers and specs and wondering what I'd buy if money was no object.
After some careful thought, I think it would be between:
https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/road/endurace/2018/en...
Or:
http://www.pinarello.com/en/bike-2018/road/gan-k-d...
I'm not saying these are the absolute best out there, but they kind of float my boat (if you know what I mean).
So.....what would you buy (road/mountain/cx etc)?

Money no objection and you'd choose a Canyon?
For me I'd go for:
Pegoretti Responsorium in Ciavete with pre 2015 Super Record mechanical and Bora Ultra 35.
Colnago C59 in AD4 with pre 2015 Super Record mechanical and Bora Ultra 50.
Colnago C60 in MHCF with Super Record EPS and Bora Ultra 50.

Quite tempted by a Laverack Jack currently, Ultegra Di2 flavour, probably in custom Geo.
Do they do Cycle Scheme?
Definitely custom geo. They're built to order anyway so you might as well.Do they do Cycle Scheme?
Money no object I honestly don't think I'd choose much different from my current setup. My J Laverack is as good as it gets for going long and the Canyon Aeroad is still my favourite looking fast bike. I might swap for the disc-braked version (controversial, I'm sure, but it would be faster on the descents) and I guess the components would be a bit more bling.
In this fantasy world (where it wouldn't be nicked in 3 minutes) I'd choose a sexy ride for cruising the streets or a fully tricked out TT setup.
