Canyon Grail AL 7.0 SL in bikepacking review

Oct 2020 · Benjamin Topf

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?

Highs
  • Top spec for the money

  • Braking performance

  • Good gravel all-rounder

Lows
  • Lacking comfort

  • Lacking mounting points

  • Some welds look rudimentary

  • Chainring too big

While some gravel bikes are trying to be more like mountain bikes with drop bars, the geometry and look of the Canyon Grail AL 7.0 suggests that it is more of a road bike with extra tire clearance. Canyon doesn’t take many risks with this aluminum gravel bike, but is it actually any good? As […]

Highs
  • Excellent value, solid build kit, familiar handling.

Lows
  • Staid color scheme, the usual quirks of buying consumer-direct.
