The Spectral:ON CFR LTD is one of the most desirable models on the market. Why? The downtube with its slim silhouette can accommodate batteries of up to 900 watt-hours. The motor, which is rotated slightly upward, creates space so that the battery can sit as low as possible in the bike. The Canyon developers know: A low center of gravity is essential for good handling on the trail.

Shimano has become the biggest component manufacturer for bicycles thanks to its gear, pedal and brake components. It's clear that the Japanese want to shape the E-Bike trend from this dominant market position. Even seemingly hopeless inclines the Shimano motor easily climbs up well Although the EP8 isn't the strongest when it comes to maximum power, it still has its advantages.. The Shimano EP8 provides a well-rounded riding experience with a harmonious power delivery. Fans of XXL tours will be happy with the Spectral:ON CFR LTD due to ist excellent range.

The most importanten ratings of the Canyon Spectral:ON CFR LTD ⬤ in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (11000) ⬤.

The very good chassis with 150 mm travel in the front and 155 mm rear hub also proves to have a lot of resilience even on rougher terrain. At the chassis, Canyon reaches into the trick box and brings out something to make tech nerds' eyes light up. The suspension elements are electronically and fully automatically blocked depending on the riding situation. When it comes to the brakes, Canyon reaches for the top shelf and instals premium brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from SRAM. In the area of shifting and the overall parts, Canyon ist on the money. The superb accessories make sure people will notice this bike, no matter where you rock up with it. The relatively high reach value in the geometry table is compensated by Canyon with a relatively short stem. Thus, the long main frame remains maneuverable in the terrain.
