A versatile aluminium gravel bike that’s on-trend without slavishly following fashion

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...

What the hell is the difference between mountain and gravel bikes anyway?
May 2022 · By
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

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

ECONO-MONSTER GRAVEL HAS ARRIVED
Aug 2021
Canyon Grizl to be one of the first gravel bikes transformed for off-road adventure with SRAM's complete XPLR gravel group & suspension fork!
Jul 2021 · Guy Kesteven
Grizl is the new adventure bike in Canyon’s gravel range, but how does it compare to the racier Grail and drop-bar all-rounders from other brands?
Excellent all-round balance
Impressively rapid and power happy
Rough smoothing ride
Stable without being dull
Super durable spec
Great direct delivery bike value
Potentially troublesome ThreadFit PF86 BB
Comes in a box, not from a shop
Luggage prices are higher due to Brexit
