We put one of Canyon's fast and light gravel bikes to the test and see how it rides outside its comfort zone
Rapid ride
Good value
Lightweight
Damped bar and seatpost
Seven frame sizes
Not the best on tougher trails

For someone looking to get into gravel cycling and wanting a bike that will serve them for a long time, the Canyon Grail AL 7 eTap is an excellent option. It's easily one of the best gravel bikes I've ridden, in terms of comfort, components and value.

Fast, balanced and versatile on almost any terrain, is the Canyon Grail the most complete gravel bike on the market?
Super fast on all terrain
Exceptional ride quality
Well-balanced handling manners
Unique handlebar assembly works

Well priced thanks to the direct-sell model
Colourway not the most inspiring

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

The Grail AL 7.0 is proof that fun doesn’t cost a fortune: this £1,699 bike provided me with more joy than almost any superbike
Amazing value for money
Versatile
Fun
Comfortable
