Inventing a new bike is a mammoth task, and “to build the best bike” is even harder. Join Steve Jones at Canyon HQ in Koblenz, Germany as he learns the process from concept to creation. Today we’re following the story of Canyon’s new eBike, the Neuron:ONfly. We learn about the design, testing and assembly to see how much of a challenge it is making new ‘Superbikes’!

Looks like it's all about quantity. No attention to detail
BBB, Bueno Bonito y Barato (Good, Nice and Cheap)
my experience with QC and packaging has been awful with canyon! each canyon i have had has arrived damaged, stripped threads, rounded off heads, horrible scratches on aluminium frame to big chips on a carbon fibre frame. now to hear they use a £25,000 torque wrench yet still over tightened and stripped heads is just HILARIOUS! 🤣🤣🤣
Canyon must be paying a fortune for this advert, decent bike but far too expensive, absolutely no customer support in the uk except 2 service centres, the nearest one to me is 170 miles away, buy from a lbs which sell the actual bikes.
12:26 25000€ each?!
Hard to believe, maby more like 2500€ each!
Treated myself to a Canyon Strive On underdog recently after much research and watching of EMBN. I can confirm that this bike is an absolute beast!! Couldn't be happier with my purchase. The Bike will be my partner on many epic adventures to come .
Love the channel!!, hoping to see sime more epic adventure rides through the mountains from you guys soon.
Great insight to the manufacturing side.
Wow, fantastic set-up.
The expensive torque wrenches are linked to the build stage/requirement. And know how many bolts to tighten per stage/part. A mechanic will be made aware of a missed bolt.
Canyon is known for crap service, huge issues with QC and once having been competitively priced.
Awesome just love the factory tours.
A 25k torque wrench… well I guess an all foreign minimum wage workforce needs that kind of tool.
Pity they leave out the retailers, with workshops and staff covering warranty, no people to talk to about there bike…… Maybe all manufacturers should do the same and close the shops at least manufacturers will make more money…and we customers can go hunting for the warranty work repair and aftercare.. interested to here your thoughts 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Good luck finding a shop to take it to when you have problems with it. That same shop who you haven't supported and have bi passed you think they would be willing to help you out with warranty work or someone who has purchased a bike from themselves.
That's after you've waited weeks or months for delivery.
just copy of levo SL2 …change bosch motor……
calling a design engineer because embarrassed … a designer?
head set internal lines…..chinese carbon frame disigner class……
think back to origin!
i follow canyon on social media and sadly the quality control seems to be very hit and miss, and lots of people have had issues with their bikes…thas said, i have one and love it!
Excellent walk thru of Canyon's factory.
create super scrap
It's amazing, how the guys @ Canyon have access to torque wrenches worth 25.000 Euros, yet my Canyon Spectral came with some barely tightened screws (was lucky I checked all of them before the first ride) – and I'm talking about screws that should have been tightened to a specific torque @ the assembly line (not the headset/wheels' axles/etc). But, after an experience of 12+ yrs of working at gigantic companies like Canyon, I've seen enough to know: you will meet [INEVITABLE] some trash workers, which doesn't give a 💩 about customers' (end users') health and safety.
when CX5 models?!
Bought my first Canyon 4 months ago, love it!
Canyon prices are high competitive if you are lucky. I've been trying to buy a Strive ON CFR LTD for months. When they lower the price to 7K there is no my size, when there is my size the price goes back to almost 10K. I gave myself a few more days to wait but considering the risk and the issue with the bad assistance reported by many on Internet I'm thinking to accept the offer of a bike shop nearby: Orbea Wild M LTD at 11K with delivery in one hour
Direct to consumer just seems a bad idea for a bike, especially an ebike with all the electrics. Yes, you save some money but you are buying a toy you do not need so spend the extra money to get service from an LBS. If I have an issue I can get help in 15 minutes at my LBS. I can see this direct purchase if the buyer lives where there is no LBS, but otherwise just a bad idea for the purchaser.
All of that amazing engineering ruined by a pathetically un-reliable DU… Sad
Great job Steve and crew!
