droenn Posted January 18, 2016 Share Some Spectral EX love just went up: http://14761-presscdn-0-15.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Canyon-Spectral-AL-7.0-EX-Review-web-CB-9812.jpg The suspension delivers a ton of confident ground feedback while never feeling out of its depth, prompting the rider to adopt a more dynamic riding style. While not permanently glued to the ground, the rear didn’t once show any signs of twitchiness or inadequacy. The Spectral is one of those bikes that just begs to be ridden hard on berms or rollers, racking up the air time. linky: http://enduro-mtb.com/en/canyon-spectral-al-7-0-ex-testbericht/ Odinson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed this last year already. Love the front, the rear kinda puts me off. Capricorn and nonky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
