Back in October, Canyon unveiled its latest iteration of its Spectral:ON formula. Donning Avinox’s M2S motor, while borrowing the silhouette of its unpowered counterpart, the new e-bike looked to be excellent value for money, although it would still set you back £6,699. Upon that bike’s launch, Canyon hinted that there was more to come, and that’s arrived in the form of a very limited Spectral:ON CF LTD.

Canyon says that to create this build, it let its product manager loose and able to pick whatever parts they wanted, with no expense spared. The result is an Avinox M2S e-mountain bike that weighs 20.8kg, according to the brand. However, it doesn’t state which frame size that weight has been measured from. With its 700Wh battery, that motor knocks out 1,500 watt of peak power and 150Nm of torque.

As its CF moniker suggests, this bike uses the same carbon frame as found on the Spectral:ON 9 that’s built to category 4e strength and impact testing. We’re told that the frame weighs 2.9 kilos, but again, there’s no sign of which frame size it’s come from.

Gracing the Spectral:ON CF LTD with ‘dream bike’ status is a full suite of RockShox and SRAM components. So a Lyrik with the LinearXL tech damps the 160mm of suspension up front, and that’s paired with a Super Deluxe LinearXL shock. SRAM provides the drivetrain, of course, and present is the XX AXS T-Type electric drivetrain combined with SRAM Maven Ultimate brakes. The bike then rolls on DT Swiss’s HXC1500 carbon hoops.

This model isn’t all that we’ll see from Canyon and the Spectral:ON, as the brand has mentioned that we can expect two more models to drop between now and January 2027.

But if this bike is a little bit of you, there’s one kicker: there are only 150 available to buy; this is a limited edition bike, after all, and it’ll set you back £7,599
