The Grizl is hands down one the smoothest riding drop bar bikes I’ve ridden.BIKEPACKING.com
It’s got just about all the best bits of the carbon Grail with none of the weirdness or constraints imposed by the funky cockpit.
BikeRadarIt’s a rugged workhorse of a bike that somehow never seems to teeter too far in any one direction.
CyclistThe bike deservedly wins this test and is a glimpse into the future: gravel all-rounders will increasingly have active suspension – the performance says it all!

The Grizl is Canyon’s adventure weapon of choice, designed to go well over long distances and rough terrain, ideal for any bikepacking extremes. This pink beauty isn't just about looks though…

Yes, this limited edition Canyon Grizl Throwback gravel bike isn't ashamed to admit that it's just a lightweight rigid 90s mountain bike!
Nov 2022 · Joseph Delves
A versatile aluminium gravel bike that’s on-trend without slavishly following fashion

You'll be hard pressed to find another rider who makes more use of the entire Canyon range of bikes than Mathieu van der Poel.

The Canyon Grizl 7 Suspension is a reasonably priced, top-rated gravel bike with an aluminum-frame. It shines on the descents and over rough surfaces...
Reasonable price
Suspension fork
Great on the descents and rough surfaces
Nice component spec
Comes in both carbon and aluminum frames and multiple builds
Fairly heavy
Longer reach
Fewer accessory mounts than rigid fork version

What the hell is the difference between mountain and gravel bikes anyway?
Comfortable, fast, and fun to ride
Stable on high speed road descents and traditional gravel
Friendly geometry for technical terrain
Excellent power transfer
Good for mixed surface paths and gravel trails
Flexible platform with various build kits
Heavy, complex, and expensive suspension fork (Rudy)
Canyon speced a 1.25" steerer (disliked by reviewer)
Dropper post eliminates ride damping from previous flexy post
Canyon water bottles and cages not recommended

We already know that the Canyon Grizl is a solid and versatile gravel bike. That means the main question is how adding a suspension fork affects performance. That's why the Grizl CF SLX 8 eTap Suspension with its Rudy suspension fork and SRAM Force electronic groupset had to prove itself in direct comparison to 18 of the best gravel bikes of the year.
Best comfort in test
Widest range of applications
Intuitive, very fun handling
Incredible price-performance ratio
Too little flare in the drops
Not as clean visually as its unsuspended relatives
Mar 2022 · Paddy Maddison
Canyon is famous for delivering well-specified machines at competitive prices and its latest gravel/bike-packing rig is no different
More mounting points than you can shake a tent pole at
Confidence-inspiring handling
A lot of bike for the buck
Colour options won’t be for everyone
