    Spectral:ON 7 - questions

    Where are you located? If you're local you could always have a ride on mine. I am 5'11 and purchased the medium, it fits me well but I don't have Orangutan arms... :p The medium comes standard with a 50mm stem, I fitted a 35mm stem which has not affected my reach, not that I can tell anyway...

    Great looking bike, love that colour scheme. The red really pops off the green nicely.

    Handguards?

    I don't see the point in using hand guards on a MTB. It's not like you're getting roosted by your mates on 300 or 450 dirt bikes?

    Ahoy there Paul. Been thinking of selling my 2017 300 Six Days....... I am a little reluctant though, its the last of the carb models (Lectron fitted ;)) and I have the suspension dialled, after throwing some cash at it, so a very tough decision to make!

    Spectral:ON 7 - questions

    Welcome to the Canyon club guys and congrats on your choice of the 7.0! It’s a ripper of a bike! Frame protection... hardly anything apart from obvious place, the chain stay. Went OTB 2 weeks ago, broke a few ribs but more importantly the bike is ok apart from a few cosmetic scratches on the...

    Great to see...

    Canyon got it right with the cable routing and frame geometry around the motor. 2 really muddy rides and some thorough washing and this is the state of the top motor plate under the cover. Pretty impressive considering some of the pictures I have seen posted from other manufacturers.

    Focus Jam2 Rockshox suspension is great!

    I haven't had it apart myself yet Steve and I cannot seem to find any info on the number of tokens installed at factory. According to the Service Manual you can install 1 Gnar Dog Token + 2 Bottomless Tokens max. If I had to hazard a guess perhaps there is just the single Gnar Dog Token...

    Focus Jam2 Rockshox suspension is great!

    I do all my own spannering and love how Rockshox make all service manuals available to download with very clear, easy to follow instructions, needless to say I will be servicing my suspension myself. For a mere £40 I have the opportunity to upgrade my Lyrik RC fork to 160mm travel, that's also...

    Sure, if I had money to burn.... Thing is I don't, as I have a dirt bike which also requires deep pockets! :p

    Review Absolute Black Silicone Grips

    I used the dirt bike version of the Fasst Bars on my 2 Stroke KTM in the hope that they would reduce vibes through the bars which was giving me pins and needles and arm pump. What I got was a heavier front end (they weigh a ton) and a lighter wallet. I could not get used to the flexing...

    Let's see them Canyon bike pics.

    Absolutely awesome bikes! Extremely happy with my 7.0, its a super single track weapon! Used freeMax to adjust Eco mode to 30% assist instead of 60% and miniMax for the US speed restriction. ;)

    Wolf tooth Re-mote, help!

    R120 is quite correct. I have a Spectral:ON 7 and was going to get a Wolftooth remote along with the E7000 or E6000 controller. After riding the bike 2 hours for the first time yesterday, I decided no need for it. I like the E8000 controller and the dropper post remote is not to bad just get...

    Rockshox Deluxe R Noise....

    Good shout Steve, pretty sure it’s the shock, but will remove it to confirm. Can’t hurt to check! Just itching to ride the damn thing. (first EMTB)! ?

    Rockshox Deluxe R Noise....

    Hi Guys Had my first opportunity to setup my new Spectral ON:7 today since taking delivery on Monday. Whilst setting my sag I noticed a odd grinding noise from the Rockshox Deluxe R rear shock. If I weight and unweight the bike the noise occurs in the first part of its travel and stops...

    Tubeless - Whats required?

    Hi Guys The Spectral ON: 7 is specced with a pair of DT Swiss H1700 Tubeless ready wheels. I have already ordered a bottle of Stans Race sealant, but was wondering if I also need to get valves? Thanks in advance. G.

    Formula for buying a bike by Mad Mark

    Awesome bike that Mark! It looks an absolute beast. I am rubbish when it comes to nakeds, but I would hazard a guess it’s an Aprillia? Helmet totally compliments the bike too, great choice! G

    Canyon free not-so-festive Delivery

    I got a call from Europa last week Thursday to arrange delivery of my Spectral and advised them to deliver Monday, as I had already taken the day off work to have my Van serviced. 2 Birds one stone I thought. The representative on phone advised the driver would call 1 hour before his arrival...
