2023 Canyon Torque:ON

Dec 2023

The Canyon Torque:ON CF8 is an unapologetically big, brash, full-powered e-bike that is meant to be ridden hard!

Highs
  • Carbon frame and mid-upper tier components are a great value at this price point

  • 720 or 900 Wh battery options

  • Impressive suspension kinematics and geometry keep the bike extremely capable on big features, but is still fun on less aggressive terrain

Lows
  • Very low bottom bracket makes for frequent pedal/frame strikes

  • Lacks finesse while climbing and descending technical terrain

Canyon Torque:ON Review – First Look at a Downhill Beast

May 2023 · Patrick Brady

What has a 250W motor, the ability to go for five hours (or more) and can handle drops that would make elevators cower? That would be the new Torque:ON, a new model from the German company Canyon that bridges the gap between e-bikes and full downhill bikes. With 170mm of travel in the rear and

Canyon Torque:On 8 review

Oct 2021

We pointed the bike into a really rocky descent and we were a bit surprised. We’re so used to long travel 29er emtbs being super stable bikes that will straightline “anything”. The Canyon Torque:On 8 was different though. In hindsight, that really was to be expected. The smaller 27.5″ front wheel has less rollover abilities compared a 29″ wheel. And the short rear end favours playfullness and a faster steering. Check out the video for the whole story.

Canyon Torque:ON 9 – Season ticket included?

Jul 2021 · Peter Walker

No shuttle, no problem! The Canyon Torque:ON 9 feels like an MX bike in the air and beams you straight to the trailhead. But the added weight doesn't just come with bring advantages. Read our full review on to find out how the Torque:ON eMTB fared against its analogue opponents in our bike park group test.

Highs
  • Shuttle included in the price (only as long as the battery lasts)

  • Very stable in the air

  • Excellent traction in open corners and on technical terrain

Lows
  • Background noise of the EP8 motor and chain rubbing against the tire

  • High weight makes the bike stick to the trail

  • Limited support from the rear suspension

  • Brake rotor with the wrong pads

2021 eMTB Shootout: Canyon Torque:ON

Highs
  • One of the best descenders

  • Killer suspension feel

  • Snappy, fun, spritely

  • Price

  • Looks good

Lows
  • BB is WAY too low

  • Constant crank/pedal strikes while pedaling

  • 504Wh Battery

Canyon Torque:ON 9 first ride review - MBR

Mar 2021 · Jamie Darlow

Canyon Torque:ON 9 is Canyon's newest electric mountain bike boasts both catlike agility and big travel… can it really balance both?

Highs
  • Big travel enduro e-bike, but with genuinely playful ride characteristics. Great geometry. The spec is excellent, and the price is great too.

Lows
  • The EP8 feels underpowered next to Bosch, and the 504Wh battery isn’t big enough.
