Launched in 2018, the Canyon Neuron is no stranger to ENDURO. Over the past three years, we've tested Canyon's bestseller in all possible versions and specs. But where does it sit compared to the latest and greatest mountain bikes of 2021? Can the Canyon Neuron CF SLX 9 still deliver on the trail?
Fully-sealed linkage bearings
Weak performance uphill despite the focus on tours
Permanently overwhelmed downhill
Despite the attractive price and high-quality components, only poor value for money

A trail bike for every occasion

Canyon has rebuilt its proven lightweight 130mm Neuron trail bike with SLX-race-bike DNA and a top-level spec
Light and irrepressibly lively trail feel
Naturally efficient pedalling with compliant grip
Superbly equipped for epic XC/Trail
Geometry suits intended riders really well
Flexy when pushed or pedalled hard
Tall seat tube stops sizing up
Niche features add weight and flex
XTR brakes can be temperamental

When Canyon updated its trail-oriented 29er, the Neuron, about a year ago, we found it to be quick, efficient and level-headed. It takes a more classic
Sep 2019 · Alex Evans
A fantastic bit of kit for XC riders with a penchant to get a little rad and rowdy some of the time. Its geometry is fairly conservative though, but the bike is comfortable and composed in most situations on both the descents and ascents.
Value for money, great suspension and should appeal to a fairly broad range of people
Conservative geometry and its intentions can sometimes outgun its ability

The Canyon Neuron is a value-packed trail bike that falls more on the cross-country side of the spectrum.
A very much all-around XC/Trail bike
Excellent spec for the price
No S or XS in 29" versions and the tall seat mast height limits the size medium
Geometry isn't all that modern
Impact Protection Unit (IPU) could be annoying for some riders
