I’m a complete beginner getting into triathlon and just signed up for my first Ironman (70.3 this year). I’ve been riding casually but now need a proper road bike for serious training.

I’m looking at the Canyon Ultimate CF SL 7 AXS.
Here are my questions:

  1. Is this bike actually good value at the $4000 price?
  2. Will it be capable enough for Ironman training and racing.
  3. Should I stretch my budget now and get a higher model (CF SLX, BMC, etc.) so I don’t have to buy another bike in 2-3 years?

I like the idea of starting with something solid and modern, but I also don’t want to overspend if this bike is already perfectly fine for what I need.

Any advice would be appreciated!
