All Mountain Bikes

What is an All Mountain Bike?

Simply put, it’s the all-rounder among mountain bikes: the Jack or Jill-of-all-trades. Ingenious tech specs give you the flexibility everyone looks for in a durable mountain bike for everyday rides. Ample suspension between 140-160 mm delivers top performance on ascents and descents, so you can leave stones, roots and mud behind you and whizz full speed ahead to the next berm. Incredible traction, cornering grip and smooth pedalling make it all possible. Jump, drop, weave, and enjoy.

Canyon All-Mountain bikes are available online as Hardtails or full-suspension MTBs: the choice is yours. Whether you’re a professional, enthusiast or complete beginner, the moment you hop on the right All Mountain Bike bike for you, you’ll find unlimited fun. Scroll to find your fit.

Hardtail or full-suspension: which is right for me?

Canyon hardtail and full-suspension bikes are made of aluminium and carbon, so they’re nice and light. The noticeable differences between the two are with the suspension and the riding feel this gives.

All mountain hardtail bikes

Hardtail Mountain bikes have just one suspension system, which is in the fork. While pedalling, your power is immediately transferred to the trail. This gives a punchy response and dynamic acceleration while riding uphill.

All Mountain full-suspension bikes

Two suspension elements are installed on full-suspension mountain bikes. As well as the suspension fork, the rear triangle is installed with an air or coil shock. This means that on descents and jumps you get more traction, cushioned blows and optimum control.
