Sumarize
The Spectral 125 CF 7 is a mid-travel trail bike made by the brand Canyon, that combines the toughness of the Spectral 29 with the weight savings of their shorter-travel models. Its frame is made of high-end Carbon with an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio. The bike uses a RockShox Pike Select+ fork with 140mm of travel and a RockShox Deluxe Select+ shock, providing a buttery-smooth experience on tough terrain. Other top-notch components include SRAM Code RS brakes, SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed shifters and rear derailleur, and DT Swiss M1900 XD wheels with Maxxis tires. Weighing in at a good weight in this class, this bike is perfect for playful, but tough, trail riding.

The Canyon Spectral 125 CF 9 combines little travel and a progressive geometry. How did it fare in our 2022 trail bike group test?
- Provides more suspension travel and high confidence
- Direct handling and firm suspension
- neutral power transfer uphill
- Tires do not match the potential of the bike
- Requires an experienced pilot
Sean Leicht
In our Canyon Spectral 125 CF8 review, we found its confidence inspiring and can ride terrain we usually don’t think about taking a 125mm bike in. Learn more!
- Poppy, playful geometry
- Progressive leverage curve
- Just a fun all around bike
- Quality, headache free components
Tom Marvin
The Spectral 125 is a hooligan of a bike that encourages you to try things you might otherwise not dare
- Aggressive shape
- super-fun personality
- frame easy to live with
- Sluggish at low speed on mellow terrain
- not a sofa-like ride
- thin tyres
Alan Muldoon
The Canyon Spectral 125 is a short-travel 29er trail bike that's perfect for spicing up your local trails - but is it too niche?
- Tight responsive handling that rewards riders who want to engage with the terrain. Top quality build kit. Low-slung frame design looks killer. Niche never looked so mainstream
- Needs an EXO+ casing rear tyre. Not much lighter than a 150mm bike
Ryan Palmer
Enduro speed meets trail-bike pop
- Long, slack geometry can be cumbersome on technical climbs
- Lacks small bump sensitivity
- Not the most space for water
Peter Walker
The new 2022 Canyon Spectral 125 CF9 aims to be a progressive trail bike, continuing the success of the Spectral platform. We put it to the test.
- clean look and proven details
- freedom of movement on the descents
- firm rear suspension, offering lots of pop and reserves
- tires don't do justice to the bike's potential
Moritz Zimmermann
The new Canyon Spectral 125 is a progressive, exciting, and bold trail bike that is also the logical consequence of development in this segment. The Spectral 125 does not aim to be an all-rounder from trail to enduro, even if one...
Arne Koop
The Canyon Spectral 125 impresses with its downhill-oriented geometry, excellent equipment, and direct handling. Anyone looking for a short-travel trail bike that provides a lot of stability and wants to jump off every edge will find it here...
- Downhill-oriented enduro geometry
- Playful and direct handling
- Drive-neutral rear suspension and good riding position
- Excellent equipment
- Stiff, somewhat uncomfortable rear suspension
- Discrepancy between geometry and suspension travel
