Outdoor Gear LabThe 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

How does the updated Neuron AL compare to its more expensive doppelganger the Neuron CF?
Supportive suspension lets you push hard and the spec is impressive
Geometry needs updating and the tyres might not be best suited to wetter climates or rougher terrain

Canyon Neuron AL range consists of two models – the AL 6.0 and the AL 7.0. There's a women-specific version of each, with gender-specific contact points.
Clean, attractive frame. Excellent suspension.
Sizing and geometry hobble the Neuron on technical trails. Some spec choices are questionable.

Capable & comfortable all-round handling
Fantastic suspension quality front & rear
The organic pedal efficiency
Practical, well-considered frame detailing
