The Most VERSATILE Gravel Bike in 2024? Canyon Grizl:ON Review 

Interesting review. I got a Giant e-revolt earlier this year, primarily because of a health issue. I find it is brilliant, I can ride with my mates, who are happy to sit on my wheel into headwinds. I get a good zone 2 workout every time I ride, but can get higher levels by reducing the power or turning the assistance off. I have found my fitness has improved. I was using levels 2&3 most of the time, now mainly level 1. I ride when I wouldn't necessarily have gone out due to my health problem. I can now also ride my normal bike again as a result. Your comment on the power button is a good one, on mine the left shifter operates the power up & down, which is brilliant. I rode several e-bikes & found having to use the button on the top tube very frustrating after a while. The bike also rolls really well over the cutoff, inspite of it's weight. As for the range, on my last full charge I ran to empty and got 120miles with over 3000 ft of ascent, this was over 3 separate rides. I have some bigger, hillier rides planned to investigate this further. I really enjoy your videos, thank you.

I have this bike, I love it, ride it mainly with the motor off but if i come across a big hill or head wind, just gives me that bit of assistance to keep the average speed up. The motor is not intrusive and the weight and motor resistance aren’t noticeable penalties over the limiter or with the assistance off.

Thanks for the review, I agree having mode control on the bars would be nice to have. This bike checks a lot of boxes for me, have one on order. I was also comparing this on paper to the Specialized Creo. For those in the US market, note the storage and mudguards aren't yet available here.

This bike would suit me perfectly. Here in very hilly Slovakia some assistance on long steep hills would be great, allowing for a longer ride, and a more steady day out. The versatility of the bike is ideal too, you could ride from your doorstep into the hills and back home with the bike being pretty perfect for most surface types. The only issue is the price, which is out of my league unfortunately.

Do you know if the rack can be swapped out for a heavy duty rack so I can put a child seat on the back?

If the main battery does the rear shifter, can you cycle it when it goes flat?

Did he just say it costs 7000 eur? 😅

I really want this bike but the battery doesn’t come out and my storage unit for bikes has a wide range of temperature depending on the times of year and this is really bad for the battery isn’t it?

Thanks, mate, very helpful, but I would like to see more up hills, as we all know about flat roads 😀 laters

There's no reason why a remote can't be added as it's Bluetooth on the smart system

7k carbon gravel ebike with carbon wheels for commuting?! My dentist is going to love this bike.

Almost perfect do-it-all bike. If a bit more weight could be shaved off, and it had a removable battery, it would be great. Not a fan of Canyon’s colour schemes on the Grizls.

Very cool

I don't like the frame bag but aside from that, it's an attractive bike. I'm only sixty, so maybe something like that when I get older would be nice.

The bosch sx is very restricted connectivity wise. no ant+ no connection to garmin. otherwise a very interesting bike.

Nice bike

At that point i prefer buying a scooter with big rear box. Much more practical and comfier to ride

The Giant Revolt E represents suprior value, IMO. It's massively cheaper to buy & the spec is still excellent. I know I bought one. I got mine brand new for £3k with a huge discount. I have GRX DI2 & D-Fuse technology. I get the Shimano EP8 with 85nM. The Giant is over 4k cheaper. The Canyon is ridiculously priced. I find the price an insult to the consumer.

Keren mantap👍👍👍 bagus aya suka ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Perfect for the Dutch countryside

A carbon frame is not overkill on an ebike. Sorry.

Looks awful.. I’m all for e-bikes and getting people cycling etc but not this one 😢 great review.. Pete 🚴🏻👍

Price? You will break your bank!

It is just not worth $6k. Looks great for 2500.

I’m not carrying that hippo up my flat.

wow your cycle lanes are so poorly marked and laid out!!! Ive heard England is rubbish for bike riding! great video as always though

I dont get electric gravel bikes. The point of gravel bikes over MTB's is speed and weight, so the advantage of gravel bikes withers down to almost nothing when you put a battery on it and restrict its speed. Just get a hardtail e-bike with some bar ends for comfort.

E-bikes sales are sky high and trend will continue until they are completely saturated. However, this bike missed the mark. All the e-bikes being sold are either mountain bikes or for transportation. These applications make sense. Nobody is buying a 5k e-gravel bike.

Strange, my reaction is gone?? RU-vid or channel censorship??

Not for me looks awful in that format and expensive

My nerves, so this is proper rubbish. This crap doesn't even come close to my multi year old Cannondale Topstone 0.

That is one ugly bike

Sorry but i† looks terrible with this heavy stuff: battery/motor. Not for a gravelbike maybe my granny of 95 years old

A carbon frame and wheels…. For an eBike?? I hope Canyon are paying you well to sell this junk!

E-Bikes are not for cyclists. They are for bikers.

E bike suck

Sorry, but unless you’re disabled or elderly an e-bike is just dumb and lazy. I see most ridden by kids flying down trails at 30mph. Get some damn exercise. What’s next? The chairs from Wall-E?
