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...

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

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?
Miles ArbourMay 2021
Released today, the Canyon Grizl is a new drop-bar gravel bike with clearance for 700 x 50mm tires, lots of mounting points, and features that cater to long days in the saddle. We’ve been testing out the Grizl CF SL 8 build prior to today’s release, equipped with a set of co-branded Apidura bags, to discover what it does best. Find our review here...
Impressively smooth thanks to high-quality carbon and VCLS seatpost
Lightweight and fast
Fork mounts, downtube mounts, and lots of frame bag space
Apidura collab bags are a nice touch
Huge size range from XXS to XXL
Low stack and long reach won’t be for everyone
Gearing optimized for speed, not great for loaded climbs
