Apart from producing some of the world's best mountain, gravel, and road bikes, Canyon, a popular bicycle brand based in Koblenz, Germany, also has a rather comprehensive selection of electric bikes in its roster. For 2023, the brand has introduced its jack-of-all-trades electric mountain bike, the Grand Canyon:ON, giving it better off-road capability, will still retaining its practicality for daily commuting.
Launched in three variants, the Grand Canyon:ON is built around the Bosch Performance Line CX motor, and comes standard with 29-inch wheels. Geometry-wise, we're looking at a more trail-oriented approach rather than a cross-country setup we find in other e-bikes. This is confirmed by the rather slack 68-degree head angle, and 76.5-degree seat tube angle.
Now, if the Grand Canyon:ON 9's price tag is quite a lot to handle, the Grand Canyon:ON 8 is slightly more affordable at £3,649, or approximately $4,521 USD. The only difference here lies in the braking system, as it replaces the ABS-equipped Magura brakes with a more basic Shimano M6120 setup.
