Spectral:ON CF 8

Full carbon electric trail bike

By making the full Spectral:ON line up carbon fibre we were able to optimise the frame architecture and improve strength at critical points while shaving overall weight. The added frame strength combines with huge 15 mm thru axles at the main and seatstay pivots to boost overall stiffness and noticeably improve handling precision and suspension performance.

Powerful batteries designed for more miles and more stoke

More range, more elevation, more trails, more stoke, it’s all possible thanks to the industry-leading high-capacity batteries. Developed by Canyon, the 900Wh battery goes all in on range while the smaller 720Wh saves on weight. Medium, Large, and X-Large CF 8 and CFR models feature 900Wh batteries that boost your mileage 42%. Size Small models fit 720Wh batteries—providing you with a 15% boost in mileage over standard Shimano batteries. A powerful 4-amp charger tops up the batteries in no time and they can be charged either on or off the bike.

GPS Enabled

Whether you’re logging miles ridden and vert crushed or just keeping tabs on your baby, the GPS function of the Spectral:ON has got you covered. The new Canyon app logs the location of your bike and can even send an alarm notification if your bike gets tampered with. The GPS locator stays enabled if the bike runs out of battery.

Spectral:ON CF 8

Uniquely nimble

There’s no other full-power e-MTB like this one. We didn’t simply give this bike a big battery in order to maximize range. Instead, we developed batteries that also make the bike handle better. Our unique, horizontal fuel-cell architecture helps lower the bike’s center of gravity and creates an absolute ground-hugging, corner-slaying marvel.

CLLCTV approved

“The Spectral:ON has been such a big change to my training and riding overall. I get my kicks from the downhills and going fast. This is one of those bikes you can just lap all day on all kinds of trails, with plenty of power to enjoy the uphill too. And that’s a winner for me.” — Tahnée Seagrave, Elite Downhill MTB racer.
