The Neuron sans motor ranks among the most successful MTBs on the market. It's obvious that the Neuron:ON CF 8 comes with a bit of expectation pressure. Can it match the popularity of its non-motorized sibling?
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The Bosch motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very natural riding feeling and a progressive power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX. This great combination mixed with lots of power, is something only a few other motors at Bosch's level can achieve. Thanks to the excellent range, you should no longer have any range problems.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Merida eONE-SIXTY 700 (EP6) in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (0) .

Carbon is considered a premium material in the bike industry. In the price range about 5500€, aluminium is usually the frame material used. With the carbon frame, Canyon can clearly differentiate itself from many competitors. Rough descents take away some of the fear thanks to the average chassis. When it comes to the brakes, Canyon reaches for the top shelf and instals premium brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from Shimano. Taking a holistic approach also includes looking at the gearing and components. The components are of good qualtiy and offer no reason for criticism here. In view of the high reach value, it becomes clear: The main frame is long. However, the generous reach is compensated for by a very short stem. This way, Canyon creates a good weight distribution between the wheels and a balanced handling.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Merida eONE-SIXTY 700 (EP6)

With an excellent geometry, an awesome range and a very good motor, Canyon has put together a coherent package. Tour riders will find this bike a very good all-rounder for long tours even in alpine terrain. Where there's light, there's inevitably shadows as well. With a average chassis, Neuron:ON CF 8 has its weak points too. With a guarantee of 6 years, the warranty is generous.
