Highlights Spectral:ON CF 8

Play:ON repeat

Uniquely nimble

There’s no other full-power e-MTB like the Spectral:ON. The bike’s big battery gives you the power to ride all-day while also improving the Spectral:ON’s handling. The battery’s unique, horizontal fuel-cell architecture helps lower the bike’s centre of gravity and creates an absolute ground-hugging, corner-slaying marvel.

Tough yet lightweight

The heart and soul of the Spectral:ON CF is its light-yet-durable, full-carbon frame. Built to withstand rigorous Category 4e strength and impact testing, the Spectral:ON CF easily shrugs off hard riding, season after season, while boasting a truly impressive frame weight of 3,180 grams (7.01 pounds).

Key features

Crafted Carbon Trail e-MTB chassis

Our Spectral:ON CF sets the bar for high torque e-MTB trail bikes. From flowing singletrack to burly enduro trails and everything in between, the Spectral:ON’s lightweight carbon frame, 160mm fork and 155mm of rear travel deliver a trail taming ride feel combining capability and agility into a tough, category 4e rated package.

Next-gen power. Smart, robust, and removable

This new 800 Wh aluminium battery raises the bar for e-MTB performance. Advanced cell technology unlocks faster charging, smarter energy management, and greater overall efficiency. For maximum convenience, the battery is fully removable, allowing you to charge it easily wherever you go.

With IP57-dust-protected and waterproofing and a double-sealed design to resist the elements, it’s been independently validated by Dekra and SGS.

Proven Shimano power

A great e-MTB needs to pack serious power under the hood without compromising handling and that’s exactly what the EP8 does. With a whopping 85 Nm of torque and 400% pedal assist, the motor will you have flying up steep trails and its compact size and light 2.7 kg weight ensure that the bike still handles like a champ.

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.

Perfectly Balanced Mullet Setup

A key part of the Spectral:ON’s outstanding handling and agility is the mullet wheelsize setup. The 27.5 rear wheel increases manoeuvrability on tight trails, while the larger 29er front wheel boosts grip and rollover creating a composed, yet nimble ride. The trail focussed geometry combines roomy reach numbers with a balanced 65.5 headtube angle for a do-it-all setup

Trail tough hardware

Double-sealed bearings at the pivot points keep dirt and moisture out so you can keep riding through the crud. When it’s eventually time to service the bike, you can wrench with confidence thanks to the replaceable thread inserts which prevent stripped or crossed threads causing terminal damage to the frame.

Bike classification

This category also covers the requirements of categories 1e-3e. In addition, bicycles of this category are suitable for very rough and partly blocked terrain with steep slopes and higher speeds as a result thereof. Regular, moderate jumps by experienced riders are no problem for these bicycles. The regular and durable use of the bicycles on North Shore trails and in bike parks should, however, be excluded. Due to the higher stresses, these bicycles should be checked for possible damage after every ride. Full suspension bikes with medium suspension travel are typical for this category. The E-Bike specific information is mentioned on the CE marking on your bike.
Bikes in this category provide motorised support up to 25 kph. You can ride above 25 kph, just without support.
