The Grail 6 is a fantastic all-rounder that will do a bit of everything and has no real holes in its spec
Versatility
Solid spec
All-rounder tyres are good for both tarmac and gravel
More expensive than previous AL 7.0 model and now 10-speed rather than 11
Old model had rack mounts

The Canyon Grail AL 7.0 SL is one of our most tested bikes. After awarding it the Best Buy in our 2020 gravel bike group test, it now has to prove itself as a bikepacking rig. Does the Grail AL have everything it takes for big adventures?
Top spec for the money
Braking performance
Good gravel all-rounder
Lacking comfort
Lacking mounting points
Some welds look rudimentary
Chainring too big

While some gravel bikes are trying to be more like mountain bikes with drop bars, the geometry and look of the Canyon Grail AL 7.0 suggests that it is more of a road bike with extra tire clearance. Canyon doesn’t take many risks with this aluminum gravel bike, but is it actually any good? As […]
Excellent value, solid build kit, familiar handling.
Staid color scheme, the usual quirks of buying consumer-direct.

The same geometry and pedigree as the double handlebar Grail, the Grail AL is aimed at the gravel riders and races that like the stiffness of alloy and the price point it offers. - Mtbr.com
