Expirience with the Canyon Torque 29 AL 6

Ludwig Döhl The combination of a lot of spring travel and large 29er wheels make the Torque 29 AL 6 a beast on the descents. The flat 63,5 degree head tube angle of the Canyon Torque 29 AL 6 gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. The seating position of the on very demanding single trails moves in a moderate range between sporty and comfortable. When viewing the 16,5 kg, its apparent: there are lighter Enduros in this price range. Another strong argument needs to be mentioned: the coherent geometry and the grippy tires will make you smile all the way to the bottom of the descent. With 6 years the warranty is another neat feature.
