Expirience with the Canyon Torque 27.5 AL 5

Ludwig Döhl You could still call the Torque 27.5 AL 5 a freerider. However, the term Enduro is now much more common. It´s one of the few bikes that are currently still available with 27.5 inch wheels. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Torque 27.5 AL 5 is a very balanced customer. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the Canyon Torque 27.5 AL 5, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. A shout out to Canyon – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Enduro of Canyon for on very demanding single trails a benchmark in the price range under 3000 Euro. With 6 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
