Although anyone can buy this bike (assuming they have the money), what they can't buy is the level of personal details that Canyon is willing to put on the bike for you. Let's look at the little things that make this bike super special for the current IRONMAN World Champion.

With some history here Chelsea saw a rainbow at the start of the world champs and saw it as a good omen.
During Kona she repeated “stay here” and “yes, yes, yes,” to help her stay present and to not think about winning.
“yes, yes, yes” was inspired by Skye who at the time was in a phase of saying “no” to everything, and her and the fam wouks say ‘yes’ to her. And that came to her in the race.

She will carry 2 bottles plus her internal hydration. Canyon has done a great job with the way these are done -- super clean compared to most other bikes.
