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 high-end, superlight version of Canyon's 130 mm touring rocket, the Neuron CF SLX 9.0 LTD has a new frame and is designed to hit the sweet spot between comfort and riding fun. But what are the limits of this ultimate all-rounder when it comes to trail performance? Can it be the perfect bike for both Alpencross and home trails?
Top spec
Climbs well
Lively, direct character
Great value for money
Tires lack grip
Nervous at high speeds

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

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
