If i was buying again i wouldn't pay for optitune.
They didn't change the shock spring, just the fork spring - and they can be bought for £25 her in the UK. Optitune cost me nearly £50!!
I ended up paying to get the hardest fork spring too as i find the Van a bit linear, so was blowing through all it's travel on big hits.
Bought a Ti spring for out back - for the bling!!
my weight is 60kg +- 2kg
in my fork,their is the standard-spring (70-84kg i think)
and i was surprised how soft the fork is after two month of riding everey second day.
it is unneccesery gadget for me
(any mistakes?, sorry
)

Hey guys, I am 1.70 m, inseam 81 cm, which puts me between frame sizes S and M.
I have a hardtail with a 16" frame but have the seatpost pulled out quite a bit. I am not a big tour fan but I'd still like to be able to ride my bike uphill if necessary.
So this is a question for those of you (Svensson, Hardtail?) who chose the bigger frame and have had some time to ride their bikes: do you feel you made the right decision or would you rather have ordered the smaller frame?
Thanks!
ETA: I compared Bells0's kitchen pics with my bike in my kitchen and since kitchen counters pretty much all have the same hight I'd say that even with the different geometrie the top tube of an M frame appears a bit too high. I guess I'll go with the smaller frame, looks like that's what other Torque buyers have done.

I'm also 1,70m and i've chosen M.
at difficult passages, i misses my old little S hardtail, because the torque (M) is a little bit long. the uphillperformence is perfectly
downhill/freeride: because of the long distance between front and backwheel it is fast, but not sooooo ... (german:wendig)
but i'm still pretty wondered about the bike

Alright, thanks for the input!
I think I'll take the S .
I'm kind of worried about the hight of the top tube. If I stand above my hardtail's top tube there's maybe 2 - 2 1/1 inches between the tube and my nether regions. With a larger frame that could get nasty quick.

Hehehe - 'Nether Regions' - a very English term!!
nice choice of words XD

Woah! I just checked Canyon's website and the following sizes are sold out:
Black in M
Brown in S and M
I ordered mine last week and have to wait until week 30. Last week I was wondering wether I should wait for the end of season sale but decided against it.
Cheers!

Feder mittlerweilen wieder auf die Originale 300er gewechselt, harmoniert nach dem Einfahren mit der Gabel (Feder: 79-95 kg) perfekt. Für Tour wäre wohl die 350er die optimale Wahl.
