Have it all
Trail tuned travel
The Spectral family rides on 150 mm travel forks and 140 or 150 mm of rear suspension for CF and AL respectively. Controlled and composed in the rough, responsive and poppy through flow trails, efficient and supportive on the climbs.
Spot on geometry
All-rounder ability
The Spectral’s versatility brings playful, capable handling on the trail. Its long and low geo is slack enough to handle serious speed through the rough but also keeps things nimble when trails tighten up.
Shreddable Cat. 4 strength
Trail tough durability
Trail rides can get a little rowdy from time to time, especially on a fun-loving rig like the Spectral. So we've developed both the CF and AL frames to the same strength level as the Strive CFR – Category 4.
Have it your way
Rider-first wheelsizes
Different rider sizes, ride styles, and terrain types mean riders need choice. That's why you'll find mullet and 29er options (and even a few 27.5 setups) in the Spectral lineup. Ride it however you want.

Flip the chip and rip
Adaptable angles
A 64° head tube angle, 76.5° seat tube angle, roomy reach, and tight chainstays are on point for that modern trail bike feel. The geo flip chip raises the bottom bracket by 8 mm and increases the head tube and seat tube angles by 0.5°.
Lightweight heavy hitter
Fresh carbon frame
A reimagined carbon chassis designed around a 150mm fork and 140mm rear travel for that perfect trail setup. Engineering wizardry, a fresh carbon layup and one-piece rocker link deliver 'just right' levels of stiffness and class-leading performance. This thing feels dialled.
Pick now, swap later
Convertible wheelsizes
Pick your favourite wheelsize and know you can swap your wheels out to run full 29er or mullet setup. The chainstay flip chip lets you easily swap wheelsizes whenever you want.
Plush in the rough
Triple threat kinematics
Delivering traction, efficiency, and all-round capability, our engineers have maximised the performance from this 140 mm setup. Our Triple Phase Suspension approach has been tweaked to perfection.

“It did all the things that I want a trail bike to do really nicely.”
Dario DiGiulio
Pinkbike
“I felt like I had some of my best laps on the bike. K.I.S. makes this a positive standout product for the year.”
The Loam Wolf
Editor’s Choice
“With its Keep It Stable steering tech Canyon is giving riders more confidence to ride harder, while the wheel size flip chip gives riders more choice.”
Alan Muldon
MBR (UK)
“The duel between Canyon and YT is a close one, as the bikes are similar in many respects. In the end, details such as K.I.S. and greater user friendliness decide a razor-thin victory.”
