The Neuron CF is a 130mm trail bike that falls between the brand's enduro and cross-country models.Bicycling
Canyon’s killer value Neuron CF 9.0 SL is about big miles and vast vistas not big air and rad verts.
The Canyon Neuron is an exercise in balance and the easy-going ride will delight intermediate riders.
The Neuron excels on the climbs and performs well on the descents on all but the rowdiest of terrain.
The Neuron is balanced and nimble, a versatile modern day cross-country trail bike that doesn't make one feel as if they need to be lining up to a race as much as having a good time on the trails.Pinkbike

The Canyon Neuron AL 7.0 is by far the most affordable bike in our current trail bike group test while still offering excellent handling. However, there is something important to consider before buying.
Predictable handling
Excellent value for money
Very comfortable
Excellent rear suspension
Uncomfortable saddle
Brakes lack power
Spokes loosened on the rear wheel

A trail bike for every occasion

Apr 2020
Completely overhauled for 2020, the Canyon Neuron AL has received a brand new alloy frame along with a new suspension layout. It also sees the introduction of a new XXS size, along with a 'Young Hero' spec made just for kids. How does it ride? Read on for the full review of Canyon's latest full suspension trail bike.
Capable & comfortable all-round handling
Fantastic suspension quality front & rear
The organic pedal efficiency
Practical, well-considered frame detailing
Seat tube is still too long!
Minimalist chainstay protector is too minimalist
The squishy & slippery Selle Italia saddle

When Canyon updated its trail-oriented 29er, the Neuron, about a year ago, we found it to be quick, efficient and level-headed. It takes a more classic

The Canyon Neuron isn’t radical but it’s very rideable if you’re into making big days on the bike as easy as possible.
Forgiving frame and suspension and balanced, traditional geometry make for an easy ride
Great carbon wheeled spec for the money
Soft frame, suspension and trad not rad geometry are placid rather than progressive
Too tall to size up for stretch, cable rub on fork and head tube

Sep 2019 · Alex Evans
A fantastic bit of kit for XC riders with a penchant to get a little rad and rowdy some of the time. Its geometry is fairly conservative though, but the bike is comfortable and composed in most situations on both the descents and ascents.
Value for money, great suspension and should appeal to a fairly broad range of people
Conservative geometry and its intentions can sometimes outgun its ability
