The Canyon Grail AL 7.0 SL is one of our most tested bikes. After awarding it the Best Buy in our 2020 gravel bike group test, it now has to prove itself as a bikepacking rig. Does the Grail AL have everything it takes for big adventures?
Top spec for the money
Braking performance
Good gravel all-rounder
Lacking comfort
Lacking mounting points
Some welds look rudimentary
Chainring too big

Great spec with no weaknesses, generous gearing, lively frame
Hover bar makes mounting accessories and tweaking fit difficult

Marin Headlands 1 2020 review Cipollini MCM Allroad Disc review Big Read: Riding and surviving the Jeroboam, a tough as nails gravel race in Italy About a year or so on from its launch, the radical Canyon Grail (and its mind-bending handlebar) continues in the German company’s range, with 2020 models being unveiled recently.

The same geometry and pedigree as the double handlebar Grail, the Grail AL is aimed at the gravel riders and races that like the stiffness of alloy and the price point it offers. - Mtbr.com
