The second generation Canyon Grail focuses on racing and speed, while not losing too much comfort in the process.

With its Double Decker bar and flexible seat post, does comfort hinder the performance of the Canyon Grail? We put it to the test to find out.
High level of comfort thanks to the seat post and Double Decker handlebar
Polarising look with a unique paint job
Great spec at a fair price (including power metre)
Seat post tends to bounce at a high cadence
Poor cable routing rattles and scuffs the paint
Apr 2023 · Richard Owen
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
