Canyon Grizl CF SLX 8 eTap Suspension gravel bike in review

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.

Highs
  • Best comfort in test

  • Widest range of applications

  • Intuitive, very fun handling

  • Incredible price-performance ratio

Lows
  • Too little flare in the drops

  • Not as clean visually as its unsuspended relatives
