Expirience with the Canyon Spectral 5

Ludwig Döhl An aggressive approach to the geometry makes the Spectral 5 one of the most "newschool" bikes on the market. Perfect for shredding, skipping, braaaping. If you ride super fast on tricky singletrails, you will love the calm handling of the Canyon. The seating position is sporty. One should not forget: the geometry is the heart of a mountain bike. For 2199 Euro, Canyon provides more than the competitors in the same price range. With 6 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
