Summary

The Canyon Torque is a highly capable enduro bike that excels in downhill performance, offering stability, speed, and well-tuned suspension. It's praised for its value, solid build, and playful handling, though it may not stand out in a crowded market and has some weight and climbing efficiency drawbacks.

Pros
  • Excellent downhill performance and stability

  • Well-tuned suspension for rough terrain

  • Good value and solid build quality

  • Playful and lively handling

  • Room for a water bottle inside the front triangle

Cons
  • Heavy weight affects climbing efficiency

  • Not the most efficient bike for climbs

  • Can feel less manoeuvrable or responsive than some competitors

  • Low bottom bracket may not suit all riders

Canyon Torque 29 AL 6 review

Sep 2022 · Mick Kirkman

Ready to rip out of the box, the dialled Canyon Torque AL 6 is excellent value, with well-specified and reliable components

Highs
  • Sorted package with good geometry and parts

  • Strong wheels

  • Chunky Fox 38 fork and X2 shock

  • Shimano drivetrain

Lows
  • Doesn’t offer anything outstanding in terms of handling or ride character in a crowded marketplace
