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?

Pros
  1. 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
Cons
  1. Needs an EXO+ casing rear tyre. Not much lighter than a 150mm bike

With the Spectral 125 CF LTD, Canyon is stepping up their game in the trail bike category. Keeping the 140mm fork and a 125mm rear suspension, the new addition is the RockShox Flight Attendant System.
