In a crowded segment, Canyon’s Neuron:ON CF 8 stakes its claim as the versatility and distance-focused trail bike. Realised through several specific geometry and component choices, as well as its suspension travel, the brand has successfully hit those aims as it can comfortably traverse all terrain in a fun and responsive manner. While Canyon has nailed the trail bike geometry, some component choices are a bit odd and negatively affect its downhill potential.

Canyon has another new e-bike; the redesigned Neuron:ON. But does it complement the recently released Strive:ON, Torque:ON, and award-winning Spectral:ON, or does it just muddy the waters? We take it for a spin to find out. Looking for an e-bike? Check out our buyer’s guide to the best electric mountain bikes and the best budget electric mountain bikes. Need to know Trail-orientated e-bike with 140mm travel Aimed at covering distance over varied terrain Bosch Performance CX motor with a choice of either 750Wh or 625Wh battery Bigger battery adds £200 to the price Carbon frame options starting at the CF 7 for £4,599 (alloy bikes use old frame and Shimano motor) Can you have too much choice? How many of you have fired up Netflix after dinner and next thing you know it’s 10pm and you still haven’t chosen something to watch? Decision paralysis is an increasingly common symptom of modern life, and while a wasted evening in front of a TV is annoying, it doesn’t have the financial consequences of choosing the wrong bike. There’s a fine line between serving specific customer needs more appropriately, and ensuring you don’t confuse them into inaction. So with three high power, full-suspension e-bikes already on the books at Canyon, adding a fourth bike to the mix needs to be done with crystal clarity. The bike in question is the updated Neuron:ON, a machine built for – in Canyon’s own words – “adventure” and graced with Bosch’s popular Performance CX motor, 140mm of travel, 29in wheels and a choice of battery capacities. What is a category 3E bike? Let’s face it, adventure can mean different things to different people, but if we look past the marketing spiel, one way to more precisely decipher intended use is through a small, often ignored frame sticker. It consists of a number inside a square and it is the ASTM international standard for bicycle classification. While it’s hardly a hot topic of conversation in the pub after a ride, the numerical designation from 1-5 is carefully crafted to make sure every bike is engineered to match its intended use. The strongest bikes – freeride and downhill rigs – have to meet, and hopefully surpass, category 5, which is defined as “a set of conditions for operation of a bicycle that includes Conditions 1, 2, 3, and 4; extreme jumping; or downhill grades on rough trails at speeds in excess of 40 km/h (25 mph); or a combination thereof.” For e-bikes the rules are even stricter, as the system weight is higher and bikes tend to experience greater mileages. The Neuron:ON sits in category 3E which includes rough, technical trails and small drops (less than 61cm). Knowing this, if you’re planning to spend most of your time riding downhill tracks and bike parks, it stands to reason that the Neuron:ON will not be appropriate and you should choose the Torque:ON instead. On the other hand, if big jumps are not your bag, and you’re more interested in exploring …Continue reading »
Super-friendly ride that’s easy to get along with. Will suit beginners and experienced riders alike. Excellent Bosch motor and choice of batteries. Fast, and frugal with battery power.
Battery not removable. Only the carbon bikes get the new geo and Bosch motor. Tyres are fairly fragile. Fork needs over-inflation.

The new Canyon Neuron:ON is Canyon’s shortest-travel full suspension ebike. Generating 140 mm of travel front and rear, the updated 2023 model is more capable than its predecessor and relies on a carbon frame and Bosch motor system. Has the additional travel converted the Neuron:ON into a short-travel trail bruiser, or is it still a […]
Good fun on moderate trails
Rear suspension with strong all-round potential
Fork and tires don’t live up to the potential of the bike
Permanently integrated battery

The old alloy Canyon Neuron:ON was a 130 mm travel bike for lighter trail duty. A relatively lightweight bike with 29er wheels that was comfortable on longer rides. The new Neuron:ON CF offers 140 mm suspension travel, 10 mm more than the...
