Canyon Grand Canyon 6 (2020) - SOLD
Great entry level bike for around €999,-. Groupset and quality is very decent. Front suspension is a little bit hard to tune. Brake levers should be upgraded as they take quite some effort to operate on long decents.
I recommend to pick the more expensive variants of this bike (Grand Canyon 7,8). The Grand Canyon 6 variant comes with a different frame which does not have a tapered suspension fork and does not allow Boost wheels.
