Hi drocho! You wont be disappointed with the infinit red color :). Have no other pictures right now but can say that the black or white version are booring (according to me). Bike is still a killer. However, I have one minor issue, there is some rattling from the cables going throu the head...

You can perfectly fine put a 170mm fork on it as well! However, I do not know if it is approved by Canyon.

I was facing the same choice this spring. Ended up choosing the SpectralON CF7, here's why: - no lbs that can let you try one + all parts can be serviced by any shimano lbs + range anxiety is gone! + live in a very mountainous region where a big battery is needed + A lot of bang for the buck...

I came from an analog Spectral with 2 x 27.5 and have the SpectralON CF7 now. Having the 29 up front is an improvement, tackles rough terrain better. Having 27.5 in the back makes it still quite playful, which I like. However, if you're after stability go for 2 x 29.

Yeah, personal preference is important, you must be comfortable with and trust your ride. I kinda like the shimanos better :). Welcome to Norway sometime in the future!

There is only one clamp for the whole shifter/brake package. But why change to SRAM, the Deore 4-piston brake is plenty enough! And I ride 800m downhills here in Norway.

Yes, CF7, CF8 and CF9 all use a regular stem and handlebar (y) Regarding a previous doubt I had, rubbing of the chain on the chainstay, I can report that there is no rubbing whatsoever after 100km of trail riding.

Great review of the SpectralON CF8! Got awarded second best 2022 emtb, just behind the Levo. https://www.outdoorgearlab.com/reviews/biking/electric-mountain-bike/canyon-spectral-on-cf-8

I just charged the battery for the first time and the 4A charger unit got extremely warm, so warm I couldn't hold on to it for long. Only charged for 3 hours. Doesn't seem right? What temperatures do you get your chargers at, normal or toasty?

Got in contact with Canyon customer service and they answered quickly. I should just disregard the extra screws and use as spare parts. Dropper post cable came out after some mild force. My CF7 is put together now and I had a short ride. First impression: what a bike!! Plush ride but still...

Thanks for the input guys! I'll have a look in the battery compartment, if anything is missing there. Have to say that the whole thing with finding unattached screws is sloppy by Canyon and a bad experience. Hopefully, I'll get a smile back when riding the bike! Did anyone experience a too...

Highway, sorry I haven't. Got my bike today though! Actually earlier than previously estimated :). But I've got two mounting questions: -These screws were lying loose at the bottom of the bike box, what are they for?! See pictures. -The cable to the dropper post seems short, how hard can I...

Edge, thanks for a good review! I'm still waiting for my CF7. I think you can see the battery % in the shimano app, but others who already have the bike need to confirm.

I ordered it the same day Canyon released the CF SpectralON bikes, in end of May! Original delivery time was end of July so not a huge delay, yet...

Got a delay email from Canyon yesterday on my CF7 900Wh 😑. Now estimated delivery is mid August, let's see if that holds true or not. Wonder what part is missing.

I'm only 75kg but choose the 900Wh battery because of these reasons. - live in a very mountainous region and need to climb a lot - want to minimize range anxiety - a Li-ion battery degrades quicker if charged to 100% every time, having the large battery means I only need to charge to 80-90%...

Good to hear, Highway! How much of that ride was in Boost mode? So no issues with anything on the bike? Fittings or the chain rubbing?

Hmm, this comment written by Ro Jas, found under the Send it Frankie video is a bit worrying!

Hope you got it by now. Am eagerly awaiting your first ride report! Can you also check if the chain is or isn't rubbing against the chain protector? If yes, which gears are affected, the smallest cogs I assume?

What's the size of the battery?
