Our Verdict: Rated 4.7/5
Canyon Torque:ON CF 9 from Canyon is a enduro e-mountain bike with a CF Carbon frame, powered by the Bosch Performance Line CX (85Nm). Long-travel e-freeride bike. Key strengths are long travel, Bosch motor and carbon frame.
Specification summary: Bosch PowerTube 750Wh battery with a quoted range of up to 100 km, Fox 38 Performance 175mm / Fox Float X2 suspension, 29-inch F / 27.5-inch R (Mullet) wheels, Shimano XT 12-Speed, Shimano XT 4-Piston brakes, weight 24.5 kg, price £5,452. At £5,452 it is in line with the typical e-bike price in the database, and at 24.5 kg it is about 6 percent above the typical e-bike weight in the database. The battery works out to roughly 31 Wh per kilogram of bike weight. Enduro bikes accept a little extra climbing weight in exchange for slacker geometry, longer travel and sturdier components that stay composed on steep, rough descents.
A full-power motor in the 85Nm class delivers strong assistance on steep, technical climbs at the cost of weight and battery consumption. Carbon frames offer a favourable stiffness-to-weight balance and can be tuned for compliance, though impact damage can be costly to repair. The mixed-wheel layout pairs a 29-inch front for rollover with a 27.5-inch rear for easier cornering and extra tyre clearance. The Shimano 12-speed drivetrain is known for smooth shifts and a wide range of gearing options. Four-piston brakes provide stronger, more consistent stopping power for long descents. Range figures are manufacturer estimates; terrain, rider weight, assist mode and temperature can change real-world distance considerably.
Verdict: Canyon Torque:ON CF 9 scores strongly in this database with a 4.7 rating. It suits park riders. Main caveat: heavy.
How We Rate
How we rate
Every rating on Gear Matrix is published alongside the information it is based on, so you can judge the score for yourself rather than take it on trust.
Gear Matrix ratings are editorial assessments built from published manufacturer specifications and comparative specification data. They are not presented as the result of physical product testing. Where an article is based on a first look, a launch announcement or a press release, the article says so.
Weight-to-power on e-MTBs
Where a weight-to-power ratio is shown it is calculated from two manufacturer-declared figures: the bike’s weight in kilograms and the motor’s declared output. Both inputs are required before any ratio is displayed. We never estimate a missing value, and we never infer a figure from a different model in the range.
The full breakdown of rating criteria is being prepared and will be published on this page.
