Top frame and killer suspension, but let down by tall head and seat tubes. Launched in late 2017, the Canyon Spectral impressed with its quality suspension and very decent kit for the price. The 2019 Spectral gains 10mm in travel at the front and rear compared to the previous model, giving it a more aggressive stance, which makes it look more like a little enduro bike than a full-on trail bike.
In addition to the extra travel, the 2019 Spectral ditches the previous model’s 2.6in tyres for a more ‘normal’ 2.4in width. This is a good shout because the narrower tyres help to make the bike feel a little more precise.
Canyon has made a cracking frame with a carbon front and alloy rear triangle, and the finishing touches - from the down tube protector that doubles as a semi-internal cable routing guide to the hidden seat clamp bolt - demonstrate great attention to detail.
What do you think of the Canyon Spectral CF 8.0? Let us know in the comments.
