- Review
  
  "Not only does the frame design look sleek; the new Spectral is also extremely lively and fast on the trails. We were surprised ourselves, after how short a time we felt very comfortable on the bike. The handling is intuitive; the Canyon reacts precisely and directly to steering movements. With its rear end kinematics, it clearly joins the more sporty types [...]. With the new Spectral CF 9.0 SL, Canyon sets the bar for trail bikes high".

  “The Spectral is an all-round successful All-Mountain. Despite its small wheels it rides extremely safely and is light enough to shine on climbs".
  
  — Mountain Bike 04/2020

This category includes all bikes from categories 1-3. In addition it includes use on very harsh, obstacle-scattered terrain with steep gradients and consequently higher speeds. Regular, moderate jumps pose no problem for experienced riders when using these bikes. Extended and regular use in bike parks and tackling “North Shore” sections should be avoided. Due to increased stresses, these bikes should be checked for damage after every ride. Full suspension bikes with mid-level travel are typical in this category.
