I tested the burly, top spec Grizl:ON which can cut it easily on MTB trails
Very versatile thanks to the power on-tap
Stylish looks
Will be at home comfortably in MTB terrain
Clever light and frame bag system
A mode adjust button on the handlebars from the factory would help
Some audible rattle over rougher ground
Some motor drag/lag on more technical terrain

Simple styling and a short, catchy name: can the Canyon Grizl CF SLX 8 Force AXS Trail prevail with its subtle Canyon styling and plenty of comfort features?
Easy, intuitive, and predictable handling
Superbly comfortable thanks to the Canyon S15 VCLS 2.0 CF seat post and RockShox Rudy Ultimate suspension fork
Timeless design
Limited mounting points for an adventure bike

The Grizl is Canyon’s adventure weapon of choice, designed to go well over long distances and rough terrain, ideal for any bikepacking extremes. This pink beauty isn't just about looks though…

Yes, this limited edition Canyon Grizl Throwback gravel bike isn't ashamed to admit that it's just a lightweight rigid 90s mountain bike!

It's pure nostalgia for this limited edition gravel machine

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...
Reasonable price
Suspension fork
Great on the descents and rough surfaces
Nice component spec
Comes in both carbon and aluminum frames and multiple builds
Fairly heavy
Longer reach
Fewer accessory mounts than rigid fork version

What the hell is the difference between mountain and gravel bikes anyway?
Comfortable and fast
Stable on high speed descents and gravel
Friendly geometry for technical terrain
Excellent power transfer
Dropper post and suspension fork enhance capability
Suspension fork is heavy, complex, and expensive
